TCGA - CCLE Collaboration. Homo sapiens

The Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia (CCLE) project is a collaboration between the Broad Institute, and the Novartis Institutes for Biomedical Research and its Genomics Institute of the Novartis Research Foundation to conduct a detailed genetic and pharmacologic characterization of a large panel of human cancer models, to develop integrated computational analyses that link distinct pharmacologic vulnerabilities to genomic patterns and to translate cell line integrative genomics into cancer patient stratification. The CCLE provides public access analysis and visualization of DNA copy number, mRNA expression and mutation data for about 1000 cell lines. The CCLE team is collaborating with the Cancer Genome Atlas pipeline to provide more detailed genomic and gene expression data to include whole exome sequencing, whole genome sequencing, mRNAseq and other sequence data on cell lines where these data are not already accessible via CCLE or other public programs. The CCLE sequence data are available now at the Cancer Genomics Hub (CGHub).
