Software application who''s main novel feature is conditional linkage analyses, in which the population can be subdivided according to criteria at some loci and analyzed for linkage at other loci. CASPAR uses simulation to overcome the problems inherent in such multiple testing. (entry from Genetic Analysis Software)

Resource no longer in service. Documented on February 23,2021.Software tool as modification of GENEHUNTER software package . Allows for parametric multi-marker linkage analysis of dichotomous traits caused by imprinted genes. By specification of two heterozygote penetrance parameters, paternal and maternal origin of the disease allele can be treated differently in terms of probability of expression of the trait.

Software program for case-control genetic analysis that takes relatedness between individuals into account. It will perform single-marker and haplotypic tests, however it will only work with SNP or other biallelic markers. (entry from Genetic Analysis Software)

http://genome.sph.umich.edu/wiki/ExomePicks
Software application that suggests individuals to be sequenced in a large pedigree. ExomePicks assumes that a genotyping chip or another cost effective means will be used to determine IBD sharing in the pedigree and that, subsequently, one would like to sequence a minimal number of individuals and use their sequences together with IBD information to deduce the sequence of other individuals in the pedigree. We are currently using it in the context of whole exome and whole genome sequencing studies to pick individuals to be sequenced from large family collections. (entry from Genetic Analysis Software)

http://www.unc.edu/~yunmli/MaCH-Admix/
A genotype imputation software that is an extension to MaCH for faster and more flexible imputaiton, especially in admixed populations. It has incorporated a novel piecewise reference selection method to create reference panels tailored for target individual(s). This reference selection method generates better imputation quality in shorter running time. MaCH-Admix also separates model parameter estimation from imputation. The separation allows users to perform imputation with standard reference panels + pre-calibrated parameters in a data independent fashion. Alternatively, if one works with study-specific reference panels, or isolated target population, one has the option to simultaneously estimate these model parameters while performing imputation. MaCH-Admix has included many other useful options and supports VCF input files. All existing MaCH documentation applies to MaCH-Admix.

http://www.openbioinformatics.org/annovar/
An efficient software tool to utilize update-to-date information to functionally annotate genetic variants detected from diverse genomes (including human genome hg18, hg19, as well as mouse, worm, fly, yeast and many others). Given a list of variants with chromosome, start position, end position, reference nucleotide and observed nucleotides, ANNOVAR can perform: 1. gene-based annotation. 2. region-based annotation. 3. filter-based annotation. 4. other functionalities.

http://www.ccmb.med.umich.edu/ccdu/SNPAAMapper
THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on August 19,2025. A downstream variant annotation program that can effectively classify variants by region (e.g. exon, intron, etc), predict amino acid change type (e.g. synonymous, non-synonymous mutation, etc), and prioritize mutation effects (e.g. CDS versus 5?UTR, etc). Major features: * The pipeline accepts the VCF (Variant Call Format) input file in tab-delimited format and processes the vcf input file containing all cases (G5, lowFreq, and novel) * The variant mapping step has the option of letting users select whether they want to report the bp distance between each identified intron variant and its nearby exon * The pipeline can deal with VCF files called by different SAMTools versions (0.1.18 and older ones) and also offers flexibility in dealing with vcf input files generated using SAMTools with two or three samples * The spreadsheet result file contains full protein sequences for both ref and alt alleles, which makes it easier for downstream protein structure/function analysis tools to take
