LACK 4.3
:: DESCRIPTION
LACK addresses whether or not a theme is actually overrepresented in your significant genes list. The program takes a list of significant genes and a list of user-specified search terms, and counts the number of genes which contain one of the search terms. Then, the program takes a random set of genes of the same size as the significant set from a genome annotation file and counts the hits. This process is repeated a user-specified number of times so that statistics regarding the randomness of the frequencies can be calculated. Statistics and histogram data is output to a text file.
