Numbers of genes in pair-wise set intersections and unions of CancerGenes literature source and annotation lists

The diagonal cells (yellow) contain the number of genes in each list (given in the head row and column). The uppermost, left-hand cell (pink) contains the total number of genes on one or more list. Numbers above and to the right of the diagonal are the number of genes in a pair-wise set intersection (overlap) between two lists (one in the top row, the other in the leftmost column). Numbers below and to the left of the diagonal are the number of genes resulting from a pair-wise set union. Percent overlap is given in parentheses, and is the number of genes in the intersection of two lists divided by the number of genes in the union of two lists. Most overlaps are 10% or less, with the exception of the overlap of Cancer review and Sanger CGC, which is 83%.
