Genetic Annotation Initiative
NCI initiate to explore, develop and then apply technology for identification and characterization of genes important in cancer. Based on gene discovery program in CGAP, the GAI is currently exploring the application of multiple technological approaches to searching the 3'UTR of genes for sequence variation. Once identified and confirmed, these variants will be put into public databases maintained by NCIBI's dbSNP and CGAP web resources. See also Cancer Genome Anatomy Project. (NCI Thesaurus)
