Abstract |
ChromothripsisDB ( http://cgma.scu.edu.cn/ChromothripsisDB ) is a manually curated database containing a unified description of published chromothripsis cases and relevant genomic aberrations. Available data includes copy number alterations, chromosome structural variations, and gene annotations. The criteria used for detecting chromothripsis in each study are also provided. At present, the molecular mechanisms involved in chromothripsis phenomenon are not fully understood. Thus, further studies with large number of identified chromothripsis samples are needed. The current release of ChromothripsisDB contains more than 400 patient samples, representing over 100 research articles. It represents an extraordinary resource for mining the existing knowledge of chromothripsis. |
