Selecting a Gene Search Term

The caBIO Portlet Templated Search tool allows end users to execute case-insensitive searches for the diseases and compounds that are associated with a gene concept. These search terms must match exact gene terms in the Cancer Gene Index.

If you would like to search for a specific gene (for example, only for "BMP7"), you may use the gene's HUGO gene symbol
