Cytokine Family Database
Welcome to the Cytokine Family Database (dbCFC) Home Page.
The Cytokine Family Database (dbCFC) is a collection of EST (Expressed Sequence Tag) records of cytokines deposited in the NCBI GenBank. It provides information about the identification of EST records to cytokine members and related data contained in other databases including GenBank, dbEST, GDB, Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM), The Transgenic/Targeted Mutation Database (TBASE), Unique Human Gene Sequence Collection (UniGene), Anatomical Expression Database of Human Genes (BodyMap), Mouse Genome Database (MGD) and Human/Mouse Homology Relationships.
EST sequences in the dbCFC were periodically BLAST-searched by us, and the identification of each EST record in the dbCFC is not necessarily identical to the identifier that is found, for example, in the DEFINITION line of the GenBank record.
Details of cDNA libraries (tissue types, etc.) are available for the EST records deposited by Washington U-Merck EST Project, and The I.M.A.G.E. Consortium.
