Features
Some of the main features are (the list may change in the future):
- Display SNPs and their p-values in a genetic context, similar to usual genome browsers
- Automatically download supplementary information from Ensembl/Biomart
- Display Hapmap LD plots
- Print and export the display to various data formats
- Import external data file such as BED or Wiggle as supplementary tracks
- Does not require to have a local copy of any data or data source, except for the primary file of SNPs and their respective p-values
- Users can scroll and browse through their data in real time
- Small in size (AssociationViewer itself is less than 800 KB, less than 5 MB with the required libraries)
- Downloaded data is kept in a cache locally for faster access
- Due to the cache, memory requirement is reasonable
