Description of the DiG file
Each line in this file represents
Each line in the DiG list represents a single gene and its association with some disease (taken from Morbid Map). Each gene (line) has been assigned a disease group number. Each group represents a set of phenotypically related diseases as determined by their Morbid Map titles.
Column number: 1
| Column name: | title |
| Column type: | text, contains multiple fields |
| Description: | title column as listed in Morbid Map |
| Example: | 17,20-lyase deficiency, isolated, 202110 (3) |
Notes "17,20-lyase deficiency, isolated" is the disease title "202110" is the OMIM identifier (3) is the evidence code See http://irefindex/wiki/DiG:_Disease_groups for more information.
Column number: 2
| Column name: | genesymbol |
| Column type: | text, multiple values comma delimited |
| Description: | gene symbols as originally listed in Morbid Map. |
| Example: | CYP17A1, CYP17, P450C17 |
Notes
Column number: 3
| Column name: | locus |
| Column type: | text |
| Description: | gene locus as originally listed in Morbid Map |
| Example: | 10q24.3 |
Notes
Column number: 4
| Column name: | diseaseomimid |
| Column type: | integer |
| Description: | omimid extracted from title column in Morbid Map (see Column 1 above). |
| Example: | 202110 |
Notes
Column number: 5
| Column name: | diseasetag |
| Column type: | integer (0, -1, -2, -3) |
| Description: | evidence tag extracted from title column in Morbid Map (see Column 1 above) |
| Example: | -3 |
Notes Only entries with -3 in this column have been mapped to a disease groupentries DiG (see column 7).
Column number: 6
| Column name: | geneid |
| Column type: | integer |
| Description: | EntrezGene identifier |
| Example: | 64087 |
Notes In some cases, a zero will appear in this column if a mapping to an EntrezGene identifier could not be made using the gene names provided by Morbid Map (see Column 2 above).
Column number: 7
| Column name: | digid |
| Column type: | integer |
| Description: | Disease Group identifier |
| Example: | 1 |
Notes The whole point of the table. This identifier is not stable between releases of DiG. Entries with identical DiG identifiers are deemed to belong to a set of phenotypically-related diseases (and genes).
Column number: 8
| Column name: | mantitle |
| Column type: | text |
| Description: | |
| Example: | manually created title |
Notes In some rare cases, titles provided by Morbid Map were not properly processed. These titles were manually re-written to avoid these problems. In most cases, the text in this column is identical to that in column 1. See http://irefindex/wiki/DiG:_Disease_groups for details.
