A tool to examine relationships between genes in different disease associated loci. Given several genomic regions or SNPs associated with a particular phenotype or disease, GRAIL looks for similarities in the published scientific text among the associated genes. As input, users can upload either (1) SNPs that have emerged from a genome-wide association study or (2) genomic regions that have emerged from a linkage scan or are associated common or rare copy number variants. SNPs should be listed according to their rs#''s and must be listed in HapMap. Genomic Regions are specified by a user-defined identifier, the chromosome that it is located on, and the start and end base-pair positions for the region. Grail can take two sets of inputs - Query regions and Seed regions. Seed regions are definitely associated SNPs or genomic regions, and Query regions are those regions that the user is attempting to evaluate agains them. In many applications the two sets are identical. Based on textual relationships between genes, GRAIL assigns a p-value to each region suggesting its degree of functional connectivity, and picks the best candidate gene. GRAIL is developed by Soumya Raychaudhuri in the labs of David Altshuler and Mark Daly at the Center for Human Genetic Research of Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School, and the Broad Institute. GRAIL is described in manuscript, currently in preparation.

HaploReg is a tool for exploring annotations of the noncoding genome at variants on haplotype blocks, such as candidate regulatory SNPs at disease-associated loci. Using linkage disequilibrium (LD) information from the 1000 Genomes Project, linked SNPs and small indels can be visualized along with their predicted chromatin state in nine cell types, conservation across mammals, and their effect on regulatory motifs. HaploReg is designed for researchers developing mechanistic hypotheses of the impact of non-coding variants on clinical phenotypes and normal variation.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 23,2022.SNP genotyping algorithm that runs on the Affymetrix 500K, SNP5.0, and SNP6.0 platforms. This software runs a clustering algorithm and generally should be run on a sample at least 50 times. It utilizes an Expectation-Maximization (EM) algorithm to produce genotypes and confidence scores for every individual at every SNP.

https://www.broadinstitute.org/birdsuite/birdsuite

Open-source set of tools to detect and report SNP genotypes, common Copy-Number Polymorphisms (CNPs), and novel, rare, or de novo CNVs in samples processed with the Affymetrix platform. While most of the components of the suite can be run individually (for instance, to only do SNP genotyping), the Birdsuite is especially intended for integrated analysis of SNPs and CNVs.
