I have the variant information in form of the chromosomal position and allele change. I wish to translate it into the relevant amino acid change (if it is a nonsysn change). I do know how to do it but it seems like there must be something out there. Don't want to reinvent the wheel. Any suggestionss

Try SnpEff: http://snpeff.sourceforge.net/ -
There are programs like SNPEff and Annovar, and ensembl's Variant effect predictor, which will take genomic coordinates, and output differences with respect to genes and amino acids.Originally posted by akitrav View Post
If you wanted to do a bit more yourself, you could used blastx to compare your DNA sequences to all potential proteins in the organism, and parse the blast output.Comment

Thank you folks but I was trying to do it from scratch or just use a functionality that does only that. Maybe if there were an R package or something like that?Comment

During the COVID-19 pandemic, scientists observed that while some individuals experienced severe illness when infected with SARS-CoV-2, others were barely affected. These disparities left researchers and clinicians wondering what causes the wide variations in response to viral infections and what role genetics plays.

The first FDA-approved CRISPR-based therapy marked the transition of therapeutic gene editing from a dream to reality1. CRISPR technologies have streamlined gene editing, and CRISPR screens have become an important approach for identifying genes involved in disease processes2. This technique introduces targeted mutations across numerous genes, enabling large-scale identification of gene functions, interactions, and pathways3. Identifying the full range...08-27-2024, 04:44 AM
