web interface for getting rsID in dbSNP of some coordinate?

Question

[Tommy Carstensen]

When I want to look up an rsID of a genomic coordinate I look in a dbSNP vcf. This is fast, when I have a terminal available and can remember the path to the dbSNP vcf. But does a web interface exist for doing the same task?

ncbi dbsnp ?

Surprisingly doesn't allow you to search by position.

UCSC genome browser with dbSNP version of interest selected among Variation tracks?

Using dbsnp:

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/snp/?term=%28%287[Chromosome]%29+AND+57120540%3A57120545[Base+Position]%29+AND+%22homo+sapiens%22[Organism]

Using ucsc das:

$ curl "http://genome.ucsc.edu/cgi-bin/das/hg38/features?segment=chr7:57120540,57120543&type=snp142"
