  • continent-specific variants

    Dear All,
    Can any body help me in how can i extract continent specific variants from 1000 genome All population variant set
    e.g i have downloaded 1000G_phase1.snps.high_confidence.hg19.vcf from GATK resource bundle and from this file i want to extract variants specific to e.g east asian ancestry
    Any help will be appreciated
    Regards

    The populations included in the 1000 genomes are described here:
    1000genomes.org is your first and best source for all of the information you’re looking for. From general topics to more of what you would expect to find here, 1000genomes.org has it all. We hope you find what you are searching for!


    In that VCF you're talking about I think the allele frequency ("AF") is split up for these super-populations:

    These populations have been divided into 5 super populations

    AFR, African
    AMR, Ad Mixed American
    ASN, East Asian
    EUR, European
    SAN, South Asian
    If those groupings aren't too general and you were interested in East Asian unique alleles than you could look at each SNP and only take those where ASN_AF > 0 and all other super populations have frequencies equal to 0.

    Cheers,
    Gavin

      Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
      by seqadmin


      Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
