Fourteen new TCGA cancer studies: This includes complete data for TCGA Colorectal Carcinoma and provisional data for thirteen other cancer types in the TCGA production pipeline. Please note that data from these thirteen new cancer types are provisional, not final and do not yet include mutation data. As per NCI guidelines, preliminary mutation data cannot be redistributed until they have been validated.
- Four new data types:
- Reverse-phase protein array (RPPA) data.
- microRNA expression and copy-number (including support for multiple loci)
- RNA-Seq based expression data.
- log2 copy-number data.
- Updated TCGA GBM copy-number, expression, and methylation data.
- New gene symbol validation service. You can now use gene aliases and/or Entrez Gene IDs within your gene sets.
- Links to IGV for visualization of DNA copy-number changes.
- Background information from the Sanger Cancer Gene Census.
- Two new Tutorials to get you quickly started in using the portal.
