Collection of 34,010 annotated gene sets

Description

A dataset containing >34,000 annotated gene sets from the following sources:

Usage

collections

Format

A data frame with 34,010 rows and 4 variables:

  • collection: origin of the gene set (MSigDB: H - hallmark, C1 - positional, C2 - curated, C3 - motif, C4 - computational, C5 - GO gene ontology, C6 - oncogenic, C7 - immunologic; BTM or TISSUES)

  • subcollection: collections are sometimes further subdivided (e.g. C2: CP:BIOCARTA, CP:KEGG, CP:REACTOME, etc.)

  • geneset: name of the gene set in the collection

  • description: a short description of the gene set (only available for some MSigDB collections)

  • members_mrna: gene members (using HUGO Gene Nomenclature Committee [HGNC] gene symbols)

  • members_mirna: miRNA members (using naming convention used by mirBase; described in: Victor Ambros, Bonnie Bartel, et al. A uniform system for microRNA annotation. RNA 2003 9(3):277-279.)

Gene set members were also mapped to equivalent validated targetting miRNAs to enable unbiased enrichment analysis of miRNA lists, as described in:
