  • Understand clinvar genotype

    Looking at the SNP's in Clinvar, for example http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/11/, I see that the SNP NM_000410.3(HFE):c.193A>T (p.Ser65Cys) (also known as rs1800730) corresponds to the disease hemochromatosis. Since we have 2 alleles, that means the genotype possibilities are AA, AT, or TT. From the ClinVar data, is it possible to see which genotype are associated with the disease? I assume that since we have a A to T mutation, then T must be the pathogenic allele. So, does this mean TT is worse than AT which is worse than AA?

    I have the same question. Could anyone can explain?

      Hello,

      whether AT or TT is needed to be pathogenic depends on the mode of inheritance. Is it dominant than it is enough if one allele has T, if it is recessive you need TT (or a second mutation in the gene on the other allele).

      In clinvar you find under "Condition(s)" links to OMIM, where you can read about the inheritance.

        You may also want to expand the text in "Summary evidence" (on the Illumina and Invitae rows).

          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...
