variant annotation

[d1antho]

You could use SNPdat (http://code.google.com/p/snpdat). Its available from BMC bioinformatics

Hi Durga,
I use a script in 'popoolation' (http://code.google.com/p/popoolation/) package to annotate the variants. You need to supply a pileup file and a gtf file with CDS to annotate the variants.

Hi,
I am too am facing this problem.
I am working on a bacterial genome. I have the Genome sequence, the gene annotations gff file and and list of variations (not annotated).

How do I annotate the variants using the gff file and the genome sequence file, to map the variants to genes.

Any ideas how to go about?
tx,
Durga

Hi,
Most of the tools related to variant annotations seem to be related to humans. I work on a plant species where we only have the draft genome and not annotated yet. I have done an rna-seq experiment and I have found several snps using samtools. I got a gtf file by aligning reads against the genome sequence with bowtie and tophat. The gtf file only has transcirpt information and no orf or CDS information. Does any one have a script which takes the positions of the snps, annotations from a gtf file and the genome sequence in fasta format and predict if the snps are synonymous or non-synonymous?
