Gene Information

Original ID1:

GABRA5

Dataset Information

Name:		Literature Search
Method:		Literature search
Summary:		We search all human protein coding gene names and the keywords Alcohol or Ethanol or Alcoholism in the title or abstract of all PUBMED publications. For those gene name less than 3 characters or search result hits more than 100, we use the full name to search again and manually check the results to reduce false positive.

HuGE Navigator Dataset

Name:		HuGE Navigator
Method:		Literature data mining
Publication:		Wei Yu, Melinda Clyne, Anja Wulf, Ajay Yesupriya, Marta Gwinn and Muin J. Khoury. Phenopedia. HuGE Navigator. Available at: http://www.hugenavigator.net/HuGENavigator/startPagePhenoPedia.do. Accessed [Jun. 10, 2008].
Summary:		HuGE Navigator Phenopedia provides a disease-centered view of genetic association studies summarized in the online Human Genome Epidemiology (HuGE) encyclopedia. We extracted genes associated to 9 Alcohol-related diseases (Alcohol Amnestic Disorder; Alcohol Withdrawal Delirium; Alcohol Withdrawal Seizures; Alcohol-Induced Disorders; Alcohol-Induced Disorders, Nervous System; Alcohol-Related Disorders; Alcoholic Intoxication; Alcoholic Neuropathy; Alcoholism) from HuGE Navigator Phenopedia.
