HGVbaseG2P now provides Distributed Annotation System (DAS) functionality so that datsets of interest can be remotely viewed in Ensembl or any other DAS compatible browser.

The content of HGVbaseG2P has been significantly increased by the addition of 8 new genome-wide association studies (GWAS), including data from the Wellcome Trust Case Control Consortium.

Options for searching HGVbaseG2P have been dramatically enhanced by the launch of a new HGVmart function (based upon the BioMart technology) which enables sophisticated interrogation across all the datasets in HGVbaseG2P, and large scale data extraction.

HGVbaseG2P goes live with genetic association study data from six genome-wide association studies (GWAS), plus the full marker content from dbSNP (build 129).
