ChimerDB currently consists of three searchable datasets.[2]

  • ChimerKB is a curated knowledge base of 1,066 fusion genes sourced from publicly available scientific literature.
  • ChimerPub provides continuously updated descriptions on fusion genes text mined from publications.
  • ChimerSeq is a database of RNA-seq data of fusion sequences downloaded from the TCGA data portal.
