TSGene 2.0: an updated literature-based knowledgebase for tumor suppressor genes
Tumor suppressor genes (TSGs) are a major type of gatekeeper genes in the cell growth. A knowledgebase with the systematic collection and curation of TSGs in multiple cancer types is critically important for further studying their biological functions as well as for developing therapeutic strategies. Since its development in 2012, the Tumor Suppressor Gene database (TSGene), has become a popula...
متن کاملTSGene: a web resource for tumor suppressor genes
Tumor suppressor genes (TSGs) are guardian genes that play important roles in controlling cell proliferation processes such as cell-cycle checkpoints and inducing apoptosis. Identification of these genes and understanding their functions are critical for further investigation of tumorigenesis. So far, many studies have identified numerous TSGs and illustrated their functions in various types of...
متن کاملChimerDB 2.0—a knowledgebase for fusion genes updated
Chromosome translocations and gene fusions are frequent events in the human genome and have been found to cause diverse types of tumor. ChimerDB is a knowledgebase of fusion genes identified from bioinformatics analysis of transcript sequences in the GenBank and various other public resources such as the Sanger cancer genome project (CGP), OMIM, PubMed and the Mitelman's database. In this updat...
متن کاملECGene: A Literature‐Based Knowledgebase of Endometrial Cancer Genes
Endometrial cancer (EC) ranks as the sixth common cancer for women worldwide. To better distinguish cancer subtypes and identify effective early diagnostic biomarkers, we need improved understanding of the biological mechanisms associated with EC dysregulated genes. Although there is a wealth of clinical and molecular information relevant to EC in the literature, there has been no systematic su...
متن کاملDNA methylation of tumor suppressor genes in hepatocellular carcinoma
The basic unit of chromatin is a nucleosome included an octamer of the four core histones and 147 base pairs of DNA. Posttranslational histones modifications affect chromatin structure resulting in gene expression changes. CpG islands hypermethylation within the gene promoter regions and the deacetylation of histone proteins are the most common epigenetic modifications. The aberrant patterns of...
