DeltaBase Database

DeltaBase is a database containing functional information about genes and their in vivo mammalian roles. The information contained in DeltaBase provides scientists with the ability to initiate, validate or modify drug discovery programs based upon information and relationships between gene targets and disease indications. DeltaBase contains functional and phenotypic information for genes that have been chosen for their ability to be useful targets for drug discovery.

DeltaBase is a library of functional information about mammalian gene families thought to be relevant to small molecule drug discovery.

DeltaBase contains key information on hundreds of genes per year, and to include gene families such as GPCR's, Proteases and Ion Channels.

Currently, Deltagen has selected more than 1,500 such interesting genes for our high throughput pipeline.

DeltaBase, which is available on a non-exclusive subscription basis, offers the following advantages to pharmaceutical companies:

Increases the scale and speed of generating mammalian gene function information and the delivery of validated gene targets

Reduces the cost of determining gene function and providing validated gene targets

Pre-selects commercially relevant mammalian gene targets

Provides access to knockout mice

Allows our customers to store, access, manipulate and analyze gene function information that we generate

Provides intellectual property portfolio on the functional role of genes.
