Russ Altman: Challenges for Representing Phenotype in Pharmacogenomics

  • Abstract: The PharmGKB (http://www.pharmgkb.org/) is an online resource devoted to comprehensive cataloguing of genetic variations relevant to variation in drug response. We curate primary data (genotype, phenotype at molecular, cellular, clinical level) as well as knowledge (literature curation, pathways, human annotations of key genes). We provide search and visualization tools for this information, in order to catalyze research in pharmacogenomics. For both activities, we need to index the relevant phenotypes for the purposes of indexing, aggregation, search, and automatic summarization and data mining. We need a flexible method for annotating phenotypes that are described in the literature (by curators). We would prefer to adopt community-based standards that would allow PharmGKB to interoperate with other databases, both human and model organism.
