Information
Unique identifier | OMICS_00186 |
---|---|
Name | SnpEff |
Interface | Web user interface |
Restrictions to use | None |
Input data | Predicted variants (SNPs, insertions, deletions, MNPs) |

(759)Copy number variants implicate cardiac function and development pathways in earthquake induced stress cardiomyopathy
[…] This included de novo assembly at each potential variant locus. Variants were annotated and analysed using Ingenuity Variant Analysis (IVA) software (QIAGEN, Redwood City, CA, USA), MutationTaster2, SnpEff, SeattleSeq annotation server, and Galaxy (via usegalaxy.org). Allele frequencies and additional annotations were drawn from 1000 Genomes project, NHLBI GO Exome Sequencing Project (ESP), Seatt […]

The final list of variants as annotated using the SnpEff tool (version 4.0), setting the source genome to ‘hg19‘.Construction of parental genomes: High quality (PASS filter tag), heterozygous SNPs from each fetus and high quality homozygous SNPs of t […]

Sequence reads obtained were mapped to the human genome GRCh37/hg19 assembly using the BWA software and analyzed by the Picard-tools-1.118, GATK.v4, and SnpEff_v4.1.software.[–] The mean depth of target regions was 141X. Variants were annotated using dbSNP142, 1000 Genome, ESP, ClinVar, and our in-house database. Finally, candidate pathogenic variants […]
A genome wide survey of mutations in the Jurkat cell line
[…] kat were also found in ClinVar, but the annotations do not contain gene information and are generally less informative (Additional files and ). Moving from established to predicted effects, we used SnpEff to predict the functional consequences of the GATK-called small variants. SnpEff identified 9997 synonymous and 10,984 nonsynonymous mutations. Among the nonsynonymous mutations, 252 variants a […]
