【 摘 要 】
Psoriasis is a systemic hyperproliferative inflammatory skin disorder, although rarely fatal but significantly reduces quality of life. Understanding the full genetic component of the disease association may provide insight into biological pathways as well as targets and biomarkers for diagnosis, prognosis and therapy. Studies related to psoriasis associated genes and genetic markers are scattered and not easily amendable to data-mining. To alleviate difficulties, we have developed dbGAPs an integrated knowledgebase representing a gateway to psoriasis associated genomic data. The database contains annotation for 202 manually curated genes associated with psoriasis and its subtypes with cross-references. Functional enrichment of these genes, in context of Gene Ontology and pathways, provide insight into their important role in psoriasis etiology and pathogenesis. The dbGAPs interface is enriched with an interactive search engine for data retrieval along with unique customized tools for Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP)/indel detection and SNP/indel annotations. dbGAPs is accessible at http://www.bmicnip.in/dbgaps/.
