DGIdb: mining the druggable genome
A database of known drug-gene interactions, with information derived from many public sources, allows the identification of genes that are currently targeted by a drug and the membership of genes in a category, such as kinase genes, that have a high potential for drug development. The Drug-Gene Inte...

Summary: | A database of known drug-gene interactions, with information derived from many public sources, allows the identification of genes that are currently targeted by a drug and the membership of genes in a category, such as kinase genes, that have a high potential for drug development.
The Drug-Gene Interaction database (DGIdb) mines existing resources that generate hypotheses about how mutated genes might be targeted therapeutically or prioritized for drug development. It provides an interface for searching lists of genes against a compendium of drug-gene interactions and potentially 'druggable' genes. DGIdb can be accessed at
