Good Morning Kyle: I can't tell exactly why this is, and the person that would know exactly is out of the office for the holidays. It looks like it is a function of the type of the SNP. These sequences with their fixed sizes appear to come from NCBI when we pick up the SNP data.
Perhaps we can get a more definite answer for you in the New Year when the office is back at full staff. --Hiram Kyle Tretina wrote: > To whom it may concern, > > When I enter in an rs number that corresponds to a SNP in your database, > what determines how much sequence upstream and downstream is pulled from the > genome?
