Dataset Purpose
This dataset provides a mapping table of gene identifiers and metadata, consolidating information from major bioinformatics resources like HGNC, ENSEMBL, NCBI, and IUPHAR. It is optimized for cross-referencing and querying gene-related data in tasks such as synthetic lethality studies and bioinformatics workflows.
Key Usage
- Primary Identifier: Use
gene_symbol
for lookups and integrations. - Provenance Tracking: Refer to the
metadata_source
column for data origins. - Timeline Analysis: Leverage standardized date columns for temporal insights.
Dataset Structure
The dataset contains the following fields, each of which is essential for understanding the synthetic lethal interactions and genetic relationships in cancer:
Field Name | Description |
---|---|
hgnc_id | HGNC ID. A unique ID created by the HGNC for every approved symbol. |
gene_symbol | The HGNC approved gene symbol. Equates to the "Approved symbol" field within the gene symbol report. |
name | HGNC approved name for the gene. Equates to the "Approved name" field within the gene symbol report. |
locus_group | A group name for a set of related locus types as defined by the HGNC (e.g. non-coding RNA). |
locus_type | The locus type as set by the HGNC. |
status | Status of the symbol report, which can be either "Approved" or "Entry Withdrawn". |
location | Cytogenetic location of the gene (e.g. 2q34). |
alias_symbol | Other symbols used to refer to this gene as seen in the "Alias symbols" field in the gene symbol report. |
alias_name | Other names used to refer to this gene as seen in the "Alias names" field in the gene symbol report. |
prev_symbol | Gene symbols previously approved by the HGNC for this gene. Equates to the "Previous symbols" field within the gene symbol report. |
prev_name | Gene names previously approved by the HGNC for this gene. Equates to the "Previous names" field within the gene symbol report. |
gene_group | The gene group name as set by the HGNC and seen at the top of the gene group reports. |
gene_group_id | ID used to designate a gene group the gene has been assigned to. |
date_approved_reserved | The date the entry was first approved. |
date_symbol_changed | The date the approved symbol was last changed. |
date_name_changed | The date the approved name was last changed. |
date_modified | Date the entry was last modified. |
entrez_id | NCBI gene ID. Found within the "Gene resources" section of the gene symbol report. |
ensembl_gene_id | Ensembl gene ID. Found within the "Gene resources" section of the gene symbol report. |

lsdb | The name of the Locus Specific Mutation Database and URL for the gene. |
omim_id | Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM) ID |
orphanet | Orphanet ID |
merops | ID used to link to the MEROPS peptidase database |
iuphar | The objectId used to link to the IUPHAR/BPS Guide to PHARMACOLOGY database. |
cd | Symbol used within the Human Cell Differentiation Molecule database for the gene |
enzyme_id | ENZYME EC accession number |
agr | The HGNC ID that the Alliance of Genome Resources (AGR) have linked to their record of the gene. |
mane_select | NCBI and Ensembl transcript IDs/acessions including the version number for one high-quality representative transcript per protein-coding gene. |
gencc | The HGNC ID used within the GenCC database as the unique identifier of their gene reports within the GenCC database. |
uuid | Unique identifier (not in original description, but present in the JSON list) |
rna_central_id | RNA Central ID (not in original description, but present in the JSON list) |
curator_notes | Curator notes (not in original description, but present in the JSON list) |
