Welcome to the Renal Genomics Portal

This portal highlights WikiPathways content related to kidney biology. While most available pathways are inadequate for kidney research because they are based on human data, lack tissue/cell specificity or don’t distinguish between isozymes. To fill this gap, we created nephron segment-specific pathways. Crowd contributions by renal physiologist to further develop these pathways and to create similar ones would provide a powerful and freely-available tool to expand the renal genomics field.
