Three databases, the NCI/NCBI SKY/M-FISH & CGH Database, the NCI Mitelman Database of Chromosome Aberrations in Cancer, and the NCI Recurrent Aberrations in Cancer
, are now integrated into NCBI's Entrez system as Cancer Chromosomes.
Search for cytogenetic, clinical, and/or reference information. Queries are
performed using the same approach as for other Entrez databases such as PubMed and Nucleotide.
Search using any of three methods: Entrez Query Box, Simple
Search or Advanced Search.
See publication
about this database and the SKY/M-FISH & CGH database.
| Database last updated |
- Mitelman data - May 27, 2008

Guide for Entrez Query Box
|
Enter
a search using the box (in the gray area) at the top
of the page, then press " Go. "
Examples:
- Simple
cytogenetic searches (searches both Karyotype and
CGH data):
- Which
cases have a breakpoint at chromosome band 9q34?
9q34
- Which
cases have a gain of 8p23?
+8p23
- Which
cases have a junction (breakpoint fusion) between 9q34 and 22q11?
9q34J22q11
ISCN short-form chromosome abnormalities, such
as t(9;22)(q34;q11), may also be entered.
- Add
restrictions for tissue type:
Which
cases with 9q34 have breast involvement?
9q34
AND breast[site]
Note: there is no
space between "breast" and
"[site]," and the "AND" is
in upper
case.
- Add
restrictions for diagnosis:
Which
of the above cases has a diagnosis of adenocarcinoma?
9q34 AND breast[site] AND adenocarcinoma[diagnosis]
- See
the help document for more Examples.
For
advanced queries, either use the same syntax, as guided
by the Preview/Index
link, or use the Advanced Search.
