1000 genome project specific genes selection

Question

[Eliza]

Hi,

I was wondering is there any way to get the data for specific genes from the 1000genome project instead of downloading all the mutations in a specific chromosome, (If I have a lists of genes I'm interested in can I download only the SNPs in those genes without downloading the data for the entire chromosome)?

For example if I'm interested in AUTISM there are SNPs found on GWAS but they are spread over multiple chromosomes. Is there a way to download all the SNPs in the genes associated with AUTISM?

Thank you

You can try Data Slicer unless you have too many reasons to pull from.

OR

Alternatively, you can use tabix to get list of SNPs of a region from 1000 genome as follows:

tabix -h ftp://ftp.1000genomes.ebi.ac.uk/vol1/ftp/release/20100804/ALL.2of4intersection.20100804.genotypes.vcf.gz 2:39967768-49967768 |cut -f1-5 |awk '!/##/' |head
