  2. Total of East Asian and Other Asian; see population descriptions.

  3. Total of unique subjects and excluding African and Asian redundant counts above.

Column descriptions:

Output Population - see ALFA computed populations

BioSample ID - population BioSample accession ID

Subjects - unique subject count by population

Total Site Count - total unique variant sites reported

MAF = 0 - site homozygous for the reference allele and no variant allele detected from the current subject sample size; possibly rare if subject size > 100

MAF >= 0.01 - common variant with MAF >= 0.01

0.01 > MAF >= 0.001 - rare variants

MAF < 0.001 - ultra rare variants

Singleton - minor allele is found once

Data Subsets in ClinVar, GTR, dbGaP, and PubMed

RefSNP with ALFA frequency (ALFA RS Count) and percent (%) of total RS (Total) in ClinVar with clinical significance, in GTR as genetic markers, in dbGaP with association p-value, and cited in PubMed. VCF containing RS subsets are available on FTP
