Hi, Bio-mart team: I wonder if there are some data sets not suitable for transformation into Biomart. In my experience, I had difficulties transforming the COSMIC database into Biomart as the data is very decentralized. It may just be my lack of knowledge about the Biomart system though.
My understanding is that Biomart uses a 'top-down', reverse-star schema. Should this type of schema applicable to all genomic data sets or just a limited spectrum? Many thanks! Zhengyan (George) Kan Computational Biology Pfizer, La Jolla
