gnomAD v2  Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD) Genome and Exome Variants v2.1  Data version: Release 2.1.1 (March 6, 2019)

Description

The gnomAD v3 track shows variants from 71,702 whole genomes (and no exomes), all mapped to the GRCh38/hg38 reference sequence. Most of the genomes from v2 are included in v3. For more detailed information on gnomAD v3, see the related blog post.

The gnomAD v2 tracks show variants from 125,748 exomes and 15,708 whole genomes, all mapped to the GRCh37/hg19 reference sequence and lifted to the GRCh38/hg38 assembly. The data originate from 141,456 unrelated individuals sequenced as part of various population-genetic and disease-specific studies collected by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD), release 2.1.1. Raw data from all studies have been reprocessed through a unified pipeline and jointly variant-called to increase consistency across projects. For more information on the processing pipeline and population annotations, see the following blog post and the 2.1.1 README.

gnomAD v2 data are based on the GRCh37/hg19 assembly. These tracks display the GRCh38/hg38 lift-over provided by gnomAD on their downloads site.

For questions on the gnomAD data, also see the gnomAD FAQ.

Display Conventions

  • In mode, a vertical line is drawn at the position of each variant.
  • In mode, "ref" and "alt" alleles are displayed to the left of a vertical line with colored portions corresponding to allele counts. Hovering the mouse pointer over a variant pops up a display of alleles and counts.
  • Data Access

    The raw data can be explored interactively with the Table Browser, or the Data Integrator. For automated analysis, the data may be queried from our REST API, and the genome annotations are stored in files that can be downloaded from our download server, subject to the conditions set forth by the gnomAD consortium (see below). Coverage values for the genome are in bigWig files in the coverage/ subdirectory. Variant VCFs can be found in the vcf/ subdirectory.

    The data can also be found directly from the gnomAD downloads page. Please refer to our mailing list archives for questions, or our Data Access FAQ for more information.
