EnrichMiner: a biologist-oriented web server for mining biological insights from functional enrichment analysis results

Functional enrichment analysis has been widely used to help researchers obtain biological insights from -omics data. However, the results are often redundant and difficult to digest. The key is developing tools to help users explore the relationships between the enriched terms, remove the redundant terms, and finally select representative terms. However, existing tools hardly make a good integration between enrichment analysis and representative terms selection in a biological-friendly manner. Here, we developed a biologist-oriented web server named EnrichMiner to provide a one-stop solution. It is a complete analysis pipeline from a gene list or a ranked gene table to published-style figures. More importantly, it provides user-friendly interfaces and rich interactive operations to help users explore the term relationships and remove redundancy. EnrichMiner has been integrated into the ExpressVis platform, and is freely accessible at https://omicsmining.ncpsb.org.cn/ExpressVis/EnrichMiner and does not require login.
