Investigate iLINCS for candidate repurposable drugs


Bioconductor version: Development (3.24)

This package provides a convenient way to access the LINCS Signatures available in the iLINCS database. These signatures include Consensus Gene Knockdown Signatures, Gene Overexpression signatures and Chemical Perturbagen Signatures. It also provides a way to enter your own transcriptomic signatures and identify concordant and discordant signatures in the LINCS database.
