The International Haplotype Map Project provides a public website with over 1.1 million single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) genotyped in diverse populations. This resource offers tools for analyzing and downloading genetic data for research.

Area of Science:

  • Genetics
  • Bioinformatics
  • Population Genetics

Background:

  • The International Haplotype Map Project (HapMap) aimed to create a haplotype reference panel for human populations.
  • Genotyping of over 1.1 million single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) was performed in phase I.
  • Data was collected from 270 individuals across four worldwide populations.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce the HapMap website as a central portal for accessing and analyzing genotype data.
  • To provide researchers with tools for data retrieval, analysis, and download.
  • To guide users in utilizing the website's functionalities for genetic research.

Main Methods:

  • The HapMap website was developed to host and provide access to genotype data.
  • Various analytical tools were integrated into the website.

Related Experiment Videos

  • Step-by-step guides were created to facilitate user interaction with the tools.

    • Main Results:

    • The HapMap website offers access to >1.1 million genotyped SNPs.
    • Tools are available for retrieving genotype and frequency data.
    • Functionalities include tag-SNP selection, haplotype visualization, and linkage disequilibrium (LD) analysis.

    Conclusions:

    • The HapMap website serves as a critical resource for genetic research.
    • The provided tools empower researchers to analyze and utilize haplotype data effectively.
    • The data and tools facilitate studies such as association studies and population genetics analyses.
