Abstract: | The DistiLD database aims to increase the usage of existing genome-wide association studies (GWAS) results by making it easy to query and visualize disease-associated SNPs and genes in their chromosomal context. The database performs three important tasks: 1. published GWAS are collected from several sources and linked to standardized, international disease codes ICD10 codes) 2. data from the International HapMap Project are analyzed to define linkage disequilibrium (LD) blocks onto which SNPs and genes are mapped 3. the web interface makes it easy to query and visualize disease-associated SNPs and genes within LD blocks.
