<ul>
<li class="level1"> <a href="http://www.humanmine.org/%20" class="urlextern" title="http://www.humanmine.org/%20" rel="ugc nofollow">Humanmine </a> : given a list of genes as input (Entrez/Ensembl/Symbol or a mix), it returns interaction networks, pathways, Gene Ontology categories, relevant literature, protein domains, chromosome distributions and much more on a single page. There are also nice summaries that pop-up by hovering the mouse over a gene name.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
