dbSNP 142 Available for mm10

[Matthew Speir]

Data from dbSNP build 142 is now available for the most recent mouse assembly (mm10/GRCm38). As was the case for previous annotations based on dbSNP data, there are three tracks in this release. One is a track containing all mappings of reference SNPs to the mouse assembly, labeled "All SNPs (142)". The other two tracks are subsets of this track and show different interesting and easily defined subsets of dbSNP:

• Common SNPs (142): uniquely mapped variants that appear in at least 1% of the population
• Mult. SNPs (142): variants that have been mapped to more than one genomic location
  

By default, only the Common SNPs (142) are visible. The other tracks can be made visible using the track controls. These three SNPs (142) tracks can be found on the Mouse Dec. 2011 (mm10/GRCm38) browser in the "Variation and Repeats" group.

Thank you to the dbSNP group at NCBI for making these data publicly available. The tracks were produced at UCSC by Brian Raney, Angie Hinrichs and Matthew Speir.
