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](https://huggingface.co/datasets/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 - **Source File:** [HGNC Complete Set JSON](https://storage.googleapis.com/public-download-files/hgnc/json/json/hgnc_complete_set.json) - **Paper:** [Genenames.org: the HGNC resources in 2023](https://academic.oup.com/nar/article/51/D1/D1003/6761747) by Ruth L. Seal, et al. ## 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: | Field Name | Description | |------------|-------------| | hgnc_id | HGNC ID.
