Loss of Function Variants

884 transcripts with SNVs, identified in human genomes as part of the pilot phase of the 1000 genome project, were manually annotated for their predicted functional effects. These are shown in a separate track on Vega, and the names of the genes / transcripts are prefixed with 'LOF:'. Further information.
