Text mining of gene–phenotype associations reveals new phenotypic profiles of autism-associated genes
Abstract Autism is a spectrum disorder with wide variation in type and severity of symptoms. Understanding gene–phenotype associations is vital to unravel the disease mechanisms and advance its diagnosis and treatment. To date, several databases have stored a large portion of gene–phenotype associat...
