h1. Search for Biological Entities Gene Query Overview
The [caBIO Home Page Search for Biological Entities|http://cabioapi.nci.nih.gov/cabio43/Home.action] is a flexible tool, and the workflow presented here is just one of the ways that it can be used. These steps illustrate how to query a specific type of Cancer Gene Index-associated object to identify those with attributes that are associated with your gene search term.
h1. Identifying a Gene Search Term
In order to search for genes that are associated with a given disease, you must first have a [HUGO gene symbol|http://www.genenames.org] {multi-excerpt-include:wikicontent:Exit Disclaimer to Include|name=ExitDisclaimer|nopanel=true}. Although it is much easier to use the HUGO gene symbol, you may also use the gene's NCI Thesaurus concept code. To find this code, navigate to the [NCI Thesaurus web page|http://nciterms.nci.nih.gov/] and select the {{Contains}} radio button (1). Enter you gene symbol (2) and click the Search button (3). If you cannot find the term for which you were looking, click on the Contact Us link at the bottom of the web page (4).
{tip:title=Tip}You may use the question mark wild card character after your search term (for example, "top2?") when using {{Exact Match}} or {{Begins With}}.{tip}
Select the desired result from the list of retrieved thesaurus terms in order to view the term's concept page. You may use Thesaurus Code (1) with the Search for Biological Entities tool.
h1. Using the Search for Biological Entities Tool
Compounds and diseases associated with a particular gene in the Cancer Gene Index data may be accessed by selecting the {{Gene}} class in the package {{
