Change of license terms
MSigDB v6.0 is now available under a Creative Commons license, plus additional terms for some sub-collections of gene sets. Note however that earlier versions of MSigDB are still under the older license terms. See the License Term page for details.
Updates to C2:CGP - curated gene sets
Changes to C3 - motif gene sets
A number of gene set names for changed to eliminate problem characters:
For example:
Changes to C5 collection - oncogenic signatures
Grouping sets by gene ontology (GO) terms can potentially produce identical sets for different GO terms. We have a procedure in place to detect and resolve these cases. Unfortunately, in the previous release of the database, several identical sets slipped through. Alerted by astute users of MSigDB (thank you!), we improved the procedure and were able to identify and eliminate 249 duplicate sets.
