Lipidome Juxtaposition (LUX score)
LUX score is the first metric for comparing lipidomes. It provides a measure of homology between lipidomes similar to genetic analyses (Marella et al. 2015, PLOS Comp. Biol).
This application provides a form-based, web-based graphical user inteface to run LUX score.
