To find samples with specific variants with the Find Samples with Variants tool
1. On the Geneticist Assistant main menu, click Tools > Find Samples with Variants.
The Find Samples with Variants dialog box opens.
2. Indicate which samples that the database search is to return:
• All variants - Selected by default. Return only those samples in which all the indicated variants were found.
• Any variants - Return any sample in which at least one of the indicated variants was found.
3. Indicate how to search for the variants based on one of the following:
• The Variant database ID, which is displayed in the ID column in the various Variant tables in Geneticist Assistant.
• The variant rs identification from dbSNP, which is displayed in the rs column of the various Variant tables in Geneticist Assistant.
• The variant description, which includes the following four fields separated by colons: chromosome, chromosome position, reference allele, and alt allele.
4. Enter the variant search criteria.
| When searching for multiple variants, you must separate the variant search criteria by a comma or a semi-colon, or place each search criterion on its own line. |
5. Click OK.
A list of all the samples that contain the specified variants is displayed on a Samples with Variants tab.
