About TranslFac

To have a better understanding of the conservative or condition-specific translation systems and to fill the gap of lack of knowledge on the translation process in humans, systematic analytic studies of human translation factors are essential. TranslFac, a knowledgebase of human translation factors in cancer, provides multiple genomic/ epigenomic/ phenotypic landscapes and aberrations in cancer of individual 617 human translation factors obtained from the translation process of Gene Ontology (GO:0006412). TranslFac is the unique resource for the systematic annotations of human translation factors. We will continue to update TranslFac by integrating suitable ribosome binding data appeared in the future.
