Extract text from BiNGO analysis files (BGO)
To convert BGO analysis files to another format, you need Cytoscape or other Data software.
To convert other file formats to the "Scientific Data File" file type, you need software like Cytoscape or a similar tool.
The .BGO file functions primarily as a Gene Ontology analysis result generated by the BiNGO plugin for Cytoscape. It records data about overrepresented gene categories within biological networks. Alternatively, it serves as a group policy configuration file for BeyondTrust (formerly Bomgar) remote support appliances, or as a 3D display object in the Amuze HeadHunter video game series.
The current format presents notable disadvantages. It is highly proprietary and niche. BiNGO outputs require heavy Java-based desktop software to open, and BeyondTrust files are closed configurations useless outside their specific hardware appliance. Standard online converters fail to process these formats because they lack the specific parsing logic for these unique data structures.
Researchers usually need to convert .BGO files into standard CSV or TXT formats for statistical analysis in external tools like R or Python. IT administrators may need to convert the policy files to readable XML. This file format is difficult to open or convert natively, and often only the original software can properly read or export the data. However, just drag and drop your file into convert.guru to identify the format, view it, and convert it when possible. convert.guru can still inspect the file and show text or internal content. If our analysis detects a supported underlying or embedded format, viewing or conversion may still be possible.
Convert.Guru analyzes your BGO file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.
If you want to convert BGO file to , you can use Cytoscape or similar software from the "Biological Network Analysis Data" category. In the File menu, look for Save As… or Export….
To convert files to BGO, try Cytoscape or another comparable tool in the "Biological Network Analysis Data" category.
The history of Convert.Guru began over 25 years ago in California with Tom Simondi’s file-format database. A former contributor to Space Shuttle development and a software pioneer of the 1980s, Simondi established a trusted resource for file type analysis that was even referenced by Microsoft Windows XP. Today, we use modern technology to process and convert thousands of file formats while continually improving our BGO converter.
