Recently got a project on human data. It is easy to find out all the mutations. But how do I exclude all the know Polymorphisms, any approach? Thanks!

A common approach is to annotate your results with the information from dbSNP, 1000 Genomes, Exome Variant Server .
These databases have information on previously described SNPs and their frequency in several populations.
You can download these databases and annotate your vcf files with them using snpSift annotate.

Amplicon sequencing is a targeted approach that allows researchers to investigate specific regions of the genome. This technique is routinely used in applications such as variant identification, clinical research, and infectious disease surveillance. The amplicon sequencing process begins by designing primers that flank the regions of interest. The DNA sequences are then amplified through PCR (typically multiplex PCR) to produce amplicons complementary to the targets. RNA targets...03-21-2023, 01:49 PM -
Targeted sequencing is an effective way to sequence and analyze specific genomic regions of interest. This method enables researchers to focus their efforts on their desired targets, as opposed to other methods like whole genome sequencing that involve the sequencing of total DNA. Utilizing targeted sequencing is an attractive option for many researchers because it is often faster, more cost-effective, and only generates applicable data. While there are many approaches...03-10-2023, 05:31 AM
