This page describes the changes made to the gene set collections for Release 5.2 of the Molecular Signatures Database (MSigDB).
Contents
C2: Curated gene sets (+4)
- CGP: chemical and genetic perturbations (+4 gene sets).
- CP: canonical pathways.
C5: GO gene sets (-1454 + 6166)
Gene sets in this new collection are derived from the controlled vocabulary of the Gene Ontology (GO) project: The Gene Ontology Consortium. Gene Ontology: tool for the unification of biology. Nature Genet. (2000) 25: 25-29 (http://www.geneontology.org/). The gene sets are named by GO term and contain genes annotated by that term.
This collection is divided into three subcollections:
- CC: GO Cellular component (+233 gene sets). Gene sets derived from the Cellular Component Ontology.
- MF: GO Molecular function (+396 gene sets). Gene sets derived from the Molecular Function Ontology.
- BP: GO Biological process (+825 gene sets). Gene sets derived from the Biological Process Ontology.
GSEA users: Gene set enrichment analysis identifies gene sets consisting of co-regulated genes; GO gene sets are based on ontologies and do not generally consist of co-regulated genes.
