How to search GeneCards:
Keywords may be a human or mouse gene,
protein, disease, cell type, tissue, chromosome or a related word.
Search Examples:
| Search string was: |
Matching words: |
Description: |
| p53 |
p53, P53 |
exact word match is used when nothing else is specified (case doesn't matter) |
| x84746 |
x84746 |
GenBank accession number |
| Hs.1288 |
Hs.1288 |
UniGene cluster |
| ATCC:106253 |
ATCC:106253 |
clone identifier |
| image:303124 |
IMAGE:303124 |
clone identifier |
| develop* |
development, developing, developed |
every word starting like this |
| *synap* |
synapse, presynaptic, postsynaptic, synaptophysin |
anywhere (independent of word boundaries) |
| synaptic vesicle |
synaptic vesicle |
the second word follows the first word, separated by a space and nothing else (compare the AND search below!) |
| cancer* OR tumor* OR neoplas* |
cancerogenic, tumor, neoplastic |
any of the strings separated by"OR" must occur (= Boolean "OR") |
| synap* AND exocyto* |
exocytosis in synapses, synaptic ... excocytotic |
both strings must occur somewhere in the GeneCard (= Boolean "AND") NOTE: only one "&" or "AND" per search! |
| cancer OR tumor AND breast |
breast cancer, tumors of the breast |
the search option characters may be combined [corresponds to Boolean "(cancer or tumor*) and breast"] |
| chromosome: 22 |
CHROMOSOME: 22 |
all the GeneCards genes that have been mapped to chromosome 22
(see also the chromosome-specific listings of "disease genes") |
| locus: 7p* |
locus: 7p13, LOCUS: 7p2.1 |
all the GeneCards genes that have been mapped to the short arm
of chromosome 7
