Gene Disease Database
In Bioinformatics, a Gene Disease Database is a systematized collection of data, typically structured to model aspects of reality, in a way to comprehend the underlying mechanisms of complex diseases, by understanding multiple composite interactions between phenotype-genotype relationships and gene-disease mechanisms. Gene Disease Databases integrates human gene-disease associations from various expert curated databases and text-mining derived associations including Mendelian, complex and environmental diseases.
