GEISHA lets visitors search gene expression records by anatomy, developmental stage, gene, specimen, and related parameters.
ALSoD
ALSoD collects information about genes and mutations related to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
About ALSoD
ALSoD collates information about genes and genetic variants connected to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), including genes where the evidence is weak and variants that may affect clinical aspects such as time lived after diagnosis. Genes are listed with symbol, name and assigned category, and the list can be filtered by category.
Categories range from definitive ALS gene and clinical modifier to strong evidence, moderate evidence, tenuous and unassigned. Categorisation is described as consensus-based, debatable between experts, and subject to change with new evidence.
Key features
- Collates genes and genetic variants connected to ALS
- Includes genes with weak or unreplicated ALS evidence
- Records variants linked to clinical phenotype and disease duration
- Filters gene list by evidence category
- Displays gene symbol, name, and assigned category
Best for: Researchers and others needing categorized information on ALS-related genes and variants.
Good for
- Retains all recorded genes instead of only strong-evidence genes
- Provides defined evidence categories for filtering genes
- Records clinical effects such as differences in disease duration
Watch out for
- Gene categorisation is consensus-based and may be debatable between experts
- Categories are subject to change as new evidence emerges
- Individual gene reviews were still being written for future upload

ALSoD FAQ
Does ALSoD include only genes with strong evidence for ALS?
No. It keeps information about all recorded genes but categorises them, including genes where the evidence is weak.
What does the Clinical modifier category mean?
Genetic variants in these genes have been linked to a difference in the clinical phenotype of ALS, often disease duration.
Can gene categories change?
Yes. Categorisation is subject to change on the basis of new evidence.
