The HUGO Gene Nomenclature Committee (HGNC) aims to assign a unique and ideally meaningful name and symbol to every human gene. The HGNC database currently comprises over 24 000 public records containing approved human gene nomenclature and associated gene information. Following our recent relocation to the European Bioinformatics Institute our homepage can now be found at http://www.genenames.org, with direct links to the searchable HGNC database and other related database resources, such as the HCOP orthology search tool and manually curated gene family webpages.
人类基因组组织基因命名委员会(HGNC)旨在为每个人类基因赋予一个独特且理想情况下有意义的名称和符号。HGNC数据库目前包含超过24000条公共记录,其中包含已批准的人类基因命名及相关基因信息。在我们近期迁至欧洲生物信息学研究所后,现在可通过http://www.genenames.org访问我们的主页,该页面提供了可搜索的HGNC数据库及其他相关数据库资源的直接链接,如HCOP直系同源搜索工具和人工整理的基因家族网页。
