DBASS3 and DBASS5 in computational biology is a database of new exon boundaries induced by pathogenic mutations in human disease genes.^[1]

The database has been used in a large number of studies; Google Scholar has 87 entries for papers using DBASS3,^[2] and 80 for papers using DBASS5^[3] including
