Ontological Analysis of Coronavirus Associated Human Genes at the COVID-19 Disease Portal.

ABSTRACT: The COVID-19 pandemic stemmed a parallel upsurge in the scientific literature about SARS-CoV-2 infection and its health burden. The Rat Genome Database (RGD) created a COVID-19 Disease Portal to leverage information from the scientific literature. In the COVID-19 Portal, gene-disease associations are established by manual curation of PubMed literature. The portal contains data for nine ontologies related to COVID-19, an embedded enrichment analysis tool, as well as links to a toolkit. Using these information and tools, we performed analyses on the curated COVID-19 disease genes. As expected, Disease Ontology enrichment analysis showed that the COVID-19 gene set is highly enriched with coronavirus infectious disease and related diseases. However, other less related diseases were also highly
