The UMD-MEN1 database has been set up in a joined national effort through the network of 4 diagnostic laboratories to provide up-to-date information about mutations of the MEN1 gene, identified in patients presented with Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia type 1 (MEN1) syndrom. The main roles of TENGEN (Oncogenetic Network on NeuroEndocrine Tumors) are to establish specific care, to liven up meetings of multidisciplinary dialogs, and to develop clinical research.
This database of MEN1 mutations was developed using the Universal mutation Database tool.

Data from genetics laboratories are sent to Marseille for inclusion and curation into the database. Data from the curation center are updated by the Bioinformatics team of MMG, INSERM UMR_1251 into the UMD-MEN1 French database.
This work is supported by grant from Institut National du CAncer (INCA)
