GWAS analyzer: integrating genotype, phenotype and public annotation data for genome-wide association study analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Motivation

Genome-wide association studies are beginning to elucidate how our genetic differences contribute to susceptibility and severity of disease. While computational tools have previously been developed to support various aspects of genome-wide association studies, there is currently a need for informatics solutions that facilitate the integration of data from multiple sources.

Results

Here we present GWAS Analyzer, a database driven web-based tool that integrates genotype and phenotype data, association analysis results and genomic annotations from multiple public resources. GWAS Analyzer contains features for browsing these interrelated data, exploring phenotypic values by family or genotype, and filtering association results based on multiple criteria. The utility o
