Dataset Card for Synthetic Lethal Tumor Suppressor Genes (SL TSG)

This dataset was created with the goal of providing cancer researchers and bioinformaticians with a comprehensive resource for studying synthetic lethality in tumor suppressor genes (TSGs). By identifying genetic interactions that lead to cancer cell death when both a tumor suppressor gene and its synthetic lethal partner are mutated or deactivated, this dataset aims to support the development of novel cancer therapeutics.

It is currently a highly filtered list of ~90 genes and intended to be used in combination with the dwb2023/pmc_35559673_table_s6 dataset.

In creating this dataset, we are grateful for the rich, publicly available data curated by the HUGO Gene Nomenclature Committee (HGNC). Their dedication to maintaining high-quality gene data has been instrumental to this work.

Dataset Details

Dataset Description

This dataset consists of curated information on synthetic lethal interactions involving tumor suppressor genes. The fields in this dataset include gene symbols, gene IDs, and additional metadata sourced from public bioinformatics databases, including HGNC, ENSEMBL, NCBI Entrez, and others. Researchers can leverage this dataset to study gene-gene interactions in cancer biology, particularly those that lead to synthetic lethality, an emerging therapeutic strategy in cancer treatment.

We would like to acknowledge HGNC as the primary source of the gene nomenclature and ID data used in this dataset. HGNC provides freely accessible gene data under the Creative Commons Public Domain (CC0) license. While attribution is not required, we believe in giving credit to the dedicated curators who make such valuable resources available.

Dataset Sources

Uses

Direct Use

This dataset is primarily intended for use in cancer research. Specifically, it supports the study of synthetic lethal interactions involving tumor suppressor genes, helping researchers:

  • Identify potential therapeutic targets in cancer cells harboring TSG mutations.
  • Explore gene-gene dependencies that may reveal vulnerabilities in cancer cells.
  • Integrate synthetic lethal interactions with other cancer data to guide precision medicine.

Out-of-Scope Use

  • This dataset is not designed for clinical decision-making or to predict individual genetic predispositions to diseases.
  • Using the dataset for commercial purposes without proper validation and clinical trials is discouraged.

Dataset Structure

The dataset contains the following fields, each of which is essential for understanding the synthetic lethal interactions and genetic relationships in cancer:

Dataset Creation

Curation Rationale

The curation of this dataset was driven by a need for a well-organized, comprehensive source of synthetic lethal interactions in tumor suppressor genes. These relationships offer a promising avenue for cancer therapies that specifically target cancer cells, leaving healthy cells unaffected.

Source Data

Data Collection and Processing

The data was collected from multiple publicly available sources, including:

  • HGNC: Providing gene nomenclature and IDs.
  • ENSEMBL: Offering curated genomic annotations.
  • NCBI Entrez: Supplying cross-referenced gene IDs.

Data was processed to ensure consistency across gene symbols and IDs, with normalization steps applied to ensure accuracy and usability in bioinformatics workflows.

Who are the source data producers?

Annotations [optional]

No manual annotations were added to the dataset.

Bias, Risks, and Limitations

Recommendations

This dataset is intended for research purposes only. Users should be aware that synthetic lethal interactions are still under active research, and many interactions need experimental validation. Users are encouraged to critically evaluate the dataset before applying it in any therapeutic development context.
