python-oncoref 1.8.207-1

Package Information

Descriptioncurated cancer reference data and analysis tools (Python library)

Oncoref provides a Python API for curated cancer reference data, including cancer-type ontologies, tumor mutational burden, incidence and mortality, checkpoint-inhibitor response, gene identifiers, and cancer-testis antigen evidence. It also provides reference plots and access to Human Protein Atlas and per-cohort expression datasets.

Small curated tables are included. Larger expression matrices and external reference datasets are downloaded and cached on demand. Genome integration requires the optional pyensembl package and an installed Ensembl release.

This package provides the Python library and bundled reference tables.
