PubChemBioAssay Search By Gene

Search for PubChem BioAssays that target a specific gene. Returns the list of assay IDs targeting the gene along with summaries for the top results. Useful for finding screening data, drug discovery efforts, and toxicology studies targeting a particular gene product. Example: searching for 'TP53' returns assays for p53 activation, p53-mediated apoptosis, and Tox21 genotoxicity screens; 'TSHR' returns thyroid stimulating hormone receptor assays.
