CTdatabase -- cancer-testis antigens database
What you can do:
A knowledge-base of high-throughput and curated data on cancer-testis antigens.
Highlights:
- The CTdatabase facilitates both the mining of the existing deluge of data about cancer-testis (CT) antigens, and the identification of proteins alleged to be CT antigens, but that do not have their characteristic restricted expression pattern.
- Carefully curated and annotated with most data being specifically processed for CT antigens and stored locally.
- Provides basic information including gene names and aliases, RefSeq accession numbers, genomic location, known splicing variants, gene duplications and additional family members.
- Gene expression at the mRNA level in normal and tumor tissues has been collated from publicly available data obtained by several different technologies.
- Manually curated data related to mRNA and protein expression, and antigen-specific immune responses in cancer patients are also available, together with links to PubMed for relevant CT antigen articles.
