  • how to fetch the snp allele frequency?

    hello,everyone~

    I now need a txt file with several columns, which contains the rs ID of snp, frequency of each allele. I was told to download the SNPAlleleFreq.bcp file from ncbi. But i don't know exactly what each column tells about, and who to fetch the snp allel freq. So i need some help.

    thanks very much

    Hi,

    if you haven't found another way yet, I'd recommend downloading the snp130 table from the UCSC genome browser. I suppose you'd like to have SNPs for the latest human genome? Then go to http://hgdownload.cse.ucsc.edu/golde...hg19/database/
    and download snp130.txt.gz

    A description of the columns is available in the "Tables"

    when you select from the dropdown menu
    group: Variations and Repeats track: SNPs (130)
    table: "snp130"
    and then hit "describe table schema"

    Hope this helps

      I have the same question, I am interested in frequency information from dbsnp132. I have chromosomal positions and rs#s and want to get frequency information. My goal is to filter out common snps since 1000genomes data is supposed to discover rare variations <1%.

        Hello! I checked one biallelic SNP in this database (snp131) to determine allele freq. I found an average heterozygosity of 0.5. I guess this is because there is no data on allele frequency? Or is it actually 0.5? In that case allele frequency should also be 0.5 according to hardy-weinberg?

        Thanks for your help!

          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...
