Abstract

Abstract Genes whose function is selectively essential in the presence of cancer associated genetic aberrations represent promising targets for the development of precision therapeutics. Here we present CancerGD ( www.cancergd.org ), a resource that integrates genotypic profiling with large-scale loss-of-function genetic screens in tumor cell lines to identify such genetic dependencies. CancerGD provides tools for searching, visualizing, and interpreting these genetic dependencies through the integration of functional interaction networks.
