dbSNP

dbSNP contains human single nucleotide variations, microsatellites, and small-scale insertions and deletions along with publication, population frequency, molecular consequence, and genomic and RefSeq mapping information for both common variations and clinical mutations.

ALFA Project Release 3 with over 900M variants from >200K subjects is now available (August 3, 2023)


The goal is to provide allele frequency from more than 1 million dbGaP subjects with regular updates. Visit the project page for more information or view the introduction video below.
