GOCI: An Ontology-Driven Search and Curation Infrastructure for the NHGRI GWAS Catalog
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present the GWAS Ontology and Curation Infrastructure (GOCI), a collection of modules and features for the improvement of the curation, trait organization and querying of the NHGRI GWAS catalog (Hindorff et al., 2010). Augmenting the catalogue’s phenotypic traits with the semantic framework of an ontology will increase the range of possible catalogue queries, facilitate the creation of a dynamic version of the iconic GWAS diagram and accelerate the integration of catalogue data with other sources. GOCI also includes a tracking system to support the complex curation process and safeguard the extremely high quality of curation the catalogue is known for.

The new NHGRI-EBI Catalog of published genome-wide association studies (GWAS Catalog)
The NHGRI-EBI GWAS Catalog has provided data from published genome-wide association studies since 2008. In 2015, the database was redesigned and relocated to EMBL-EBI. The new infrastructure includes a new graphical user interface (www.ebi.ac.uk/gwas/), ontology supported search functionality and an improved curation interface. These developments have improved the data release frequency by incr...
متن کاملThe NHGRI GWAS Catalog, a curated resource of SNP-trait associations
The National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) Catalog of Published Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS) Catalog provides a publicly available manually curated collection of published GWAS assaying at least 100,000 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and all SNP-trait associations with P <1 × 10(-5). The Catalog includes 1751 curated publications of 11 912 SNPs. In addition to the SN...
متن کاملGWASdb: a database for human genetic variants identified by genome-wide association studies
Recent advances in genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have enabled us to identify thousands of genetic variants (GVs) that are associated with human diseases. As next-generation sequencing technologies become less expensive, more GVs will be discovered in the near future. Existing databases, such as NHGRI GWAS Catalog, collect GVs with only genome-wide level significance. However, many true...
متن کاملGWASdb v2: an update database for human genetic variants identified by genome-wide association studies
Genome-wide association studies (GWASs), now as a routine approach to study single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)-trait association, have uncovered over ten thousand significant trait/disease associated SNPs (TASs). Here, we updated GWASdb (GWASdb v2, http://jjwanglab.org/gwasdb) which provides comprehensive data curation and knowledge integration for GWAS TASs. These updates include: (i) Up to ...
