NHGRI Repository catalog users now have a new tool to identify cell lines and DNA needed for their research. SNP Search allows users to search for a specific genetic variant among Coriell-housed samples that were included in the Phase 3 1000 Genomes Project whole genome sequencing dataset (see more details here). With this tool, users can query catalog-available cell lines and DNA samples for individual genetic variants using Reference SNP cluster IDs (rsID) or gene name (HUGO symbol). The new SNP Search will return genotypes of samples in the Coriell collection along with relevant demographic information for the samples. The Phase 3 1000 Genomes Project samples housed at Coriell consist of cell lines and DNA samples from the NHGRI Sample Repository and the NIGMS Human Genetic Cell Repository.
