What information does QuickSNP require to report tagSNPs?
In order to select tagSNPs from the QuickSNP server, the user needs only to enter either a chromosomal position or gene name(s). The gene name(s) can be either directly pasted into the given text box or provided as a separate file with one gene name written in each line. The chromosomal positions corresponding to UCSC genome build version hg16, hg17 or hg18 can be used (equivalent NCBI builds are 34, 35 and 36 respectively). For chromosomal positions corresponding to even older builds, the user can go to the link http://genome.ucsc.edu/cgi-bin/hgLiftOver to perform the conversions manually, and then enter the positions in QuickSNP.
