Database of evidence for precision oncology portal

Bioinformatics. 2018 Dec 15;34(24):4315-4317. doi: 10.1093/bioinformatics/bty531.

Abstract

Summary: A database of curated genomic variants with clinically supported drug therapies and other oncological annotations is described. The accompanying web portal provides a search engine with two modes: one that allows users to query gene, cancer type, variant type or position for druggable mutations, and another to search for and to visualize, on three-dimensional protein structures, putative druggable sites that cluster with known druggable mutations.
