New 'FITdb' database reveals the genetic drivers of immune cell function
Scientists at La Jolla Institute for Immunology (LJI) have developed a critical hub for functional genomics and immune cell research.
Summary
Scientists at La Jolla Institute for Immunology (LJI) have developed a critical hub for functional genomics and immune cell research. LJI Assistant Professor Miguel Reina-Campos directs the new Functional Immunogenomics and Transcriptomics database (FITdb), a freely accessible resource that brings together functional genomics datasets for immune cell investigations. "We designed FITdb to be extremely user-friendly," says Reina-Campos. "This is a very intuitive and fast platform for immunologists aiming to understand the immune cells, genomes and proteins they are working with."
