+ 11 February 2015 - dbSNP 142 Available for hg19 and hg38 +
+ We are pleased to announce the release of four tracks derived from NCBI + dbSNP Build 142 + data, available on the two most recent human assemblies GRCh37/hg19 and GRCh38/hg38. + The new tracks contain a substantial amount of additional annotation data not + included in previous dbSNP tracks, with corresponding coloring and filtering options + in the Genome Browser. +
++ There are four SNP tracks available as part of this release. One is a track + containing all mappings of reference SNPs to the human assembly, labeled + "All SNPs (142)". The other three tracks are subsets of this track and show + interesting and easily defined subsets of dbSNP: +
++ By default, only the Common SNPs (142) are visible; other tracks must be + made visible using the track controls. You will find the other SNPs (142) tracks on + both of GRCh37/hg19 and GRCh38/hg38 browsers in the "Variation" group. +
++ The tracks were produced at UCSC by Angie Hinrichs and Jonathan Casper. We'd like + to thank the dbSNP group at NCBI for providing access to these data. +
