density SNP data. It is useful to identify chromosomal
abnormalities based on SNP intensity and heterozygosity
data.SNPchip was inspired by the SNPscan webtool (Ting,
et al., 2006).
80. SNPtrio:
a web-based tool that allows visualization of uniparental
inheritance segments based on single nucleotide polymorphism
(SNP) genotype calls of father-mother-child trios
(Ting,
et al., 2007).
81. MegaSNPHunter:
is the first approach that is capable of identifying
the disease-associated SNP interactions from WTCCC
studies and is promising for practical disease prognosis
(Wan
X, et al., 2009). This
tool is not available.
82. SNPHarvester:
a new method SNPHarvester to detect SNP-SNP interactions
in GWA studies. SNPHarvester creates multiple paths
in which the visited SNP groups tend to be statistically
associated with diseases, and then harvests those
significant SNP groups which pass the statistical
tests (Yang
C, et al., 2009).
<3> Others:
1. The
SNP Consortium website & HapMap:
The International HapMap Project is a multi-country
effort to identify and catalog genetic similarities
and differences in human beings. Using the information
in the HapMap, researchers will be able to find genes
that affect health, disease, and individual responses
to medications and environmental factors. Data generated
by the Project can be freely downloaded with minimal
constraints (Thorisson,
et al., 2003).
2. Variome:
an openfree web resource which aims to support the
international genome variance researches by collecting,
organizing, analyzing, and disseminating difference
among individuals and populations in one species (Han,
et al., 2007).
3. The
Human Variome Project: The Human
Variome Project was proposed initially to systematically
collect mutations that cause human disease and create
a cyber infrastructure to link locus specific databases
(LSDB) (Kaput,
et al., 2009).
