FlyBase:Human Disease Model Report

Last Updated: This document is in progress.

Introduction

General Information

Name	The valid full name that is used in FlyBase for the Human Disease Model.
FlyBase ID	The Primary FlyBase identifier number of the human disease, used to uniquely identify the Human Disease Model in the database.
Disease Ontology ID	Links to Disease Ontology term report in the Vocabularies tool.
Parent Disease	Links to parent entity, which describes general and shared information for the phenotypic series. Specific (child) diseases are usually defined by a single causative human gene.
OMIM	Links to relevant OMIM phenotype report.
Parent Disease DOID	Links to Disease Ontology term report for the Parent Disease in the Vocabularies tool.

Overview

The overview is a brief summary of the Drosophila human disease model, and offers a It includes the FlyBase disease name, the human gene implicated, the Drosophila ortholog(s) of the implicated human gene, the nature of available genetic reagents, whether the human gene has been transgenically expressed, the nature of transgenically expressed human constructs, whether the human gene has been used to heterologously rescue Drosophila loss-of-function phenotypes, the kinds of experiments that have been performed, and whether therapeutic agents have been screened. Date-stamped to reflect last curator update.

Cellular phenotype and pathology	Describes the cellular phenotype and pathology characteristic of the disease. Entry includes links to outside source, and is date-stamped as to when a FlyBase curator last consulted the source.
Molecular information	Describes molecular information relevant to the disease, including information about the function of the causative gene, molecular information about mutations in the causative gene, and/or molecular information about mutant isoforms of the causative protein. Entry includes links to outside source, and is date-stamped as to when a FlyBase curator last consulted the source.
External links	Links to external resources providing additional background concerning the disease.
Disease synonyms	A listing of other names, abbreviations, acronyms and terms that have been used to refer to the disease.
