  • Help with Cosmic

    Hi I am new to the forum and need help. I am trying to search for the breakpoints of common cancer translocations in Cosmic, for example the common PAX8-PPARG or RET-PTC fusions.

    I have downloaded a number of their databases (Structural, Fusion, Mutant, etc) and have failed to find these common gene rerrangements listed in any of them.

    I have then tried searching their web interface for something as simple as "PAX8" and these widely reported translocations do not show up in their results. The same goes for RET-PTC (a rearrangement with numerous genes such as RET-CCDC6 & RET-PRKAR1A).

    Yet, when I look at Cosmic news, I can see beautiful web graphic of other gene translocations that do no interest me in the least. See link below. I simply want to find the genomic location (estimated breakpoint) of a selected group of mutant genes such as those I listed above. Can you help me figure out how to search for this information?

    Thank you so much!

    Choosing Between NGS and qPCR
    by seqadmin



    Next-generation sequencing (NGS) and quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) are essential techniques for investigating the genome, transcriptome, and epigenome. In many cases, choosing the appropriate technique is straightforward, but in others, it can be more challenging to determine the most effective option. A simple distinction is that smaller, more focused projects are typically better suited for qPCR, while larger, more complex datasets benefit from NGS. However,...

    Non-Coding RNA Research and Technologies
    by seqadmin




    Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) do not code for proteins but play important roles in numerous cellular processes including gene silencing, developmental pathways, and more. There are numerous types including microRNA (miRNA), long ncRNA (lncRNA), circular RNA (circRNA), and more. In this article, we discuss innovative ncRNA research and explore recent technological advancements that improve the study of ncRNAs.
