A bioinformatics toolkit: in silico tools and online resources for investigating genetic variation

Webster, Simon J.; Aldossary, Maryam A.; Hampshire, Daniel J.

Abstract

With the advent of large-scale next-generation sequencing initiatives, there is an increasing importance to interpret and understand the potential phenotypic influence of identified genetic variation and its significance in the human genome. Bioinformatics analyses can provide useful information to assist with variant interpretation. This review provides an overview of tools/resources currently available, and how they can help predict the impact of genetic variation at the deoxyribonucleic acid, ribonucleic acid, and protein level.
