By screening the public available gene databases (http://www4.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/ and http://www4.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/omim/), 1149 genes that may be involved in the regulation of cellular growth and cell signaling were selected and categorized. For each of the subgroups, a separate Excel file was created containing the name of the gene, the GenBank accession number and additional information.
