TY - JOUR AU - Nakamura, Yoji AU - Komiyama, Tomoyoshi AU - Furue, Motoki AU - Gojobori, Takashi AU - Akiyama, Yasuto PY - 2010 DA - 2010/07/27 TI - CIG-DB: the database for human or mouse immunoglobulin and T cell receptor genes available for cancer studies JO - BMC Bioinformatics SP - 398 VL - 11 IS - 1 AB - Immunoglobulin (IG or antibody) and the T-cell receptor (TR) are pivotal proteins in the immune system of higher organisms. In cancer immunotherapy, the immune responses mediated by tumor-epitope-binding IG or TR play important roles in anticancer effects. Although there are public databases specific for immunological genes, their contents have not been associated with clinical studies. Therefore, we developed an integrated database of IG/TR data reported in cancer studies (the Cancer-related Immunological Gene Database [CIG-DB]).
