The pharmacogenetics and pharmacogenomics knowledge base (PharmGKB, http://www.pharmgkb.org) is a publicly available internet resource dedicated to the integration, annotation, and aggregation of pharmacogenomic knowledge. PharmGKB is a repository for pharmacogenetic and pharmacogenomic data, and curators provide integrated knowledge in terms of gene summaries, pathways, and annotated literature. Although PharmGKB is primarily directed toward catalyzing new research, it also has utility as a source of information for education about pharmacogenomics.
