Tools

variant

Variant by chr-pos-ref-alt (e.g. "1-55051215-G-A") or rsid (e.g. "rs1801133"). Coordinates must match the dataset's genome build: the default gnomad_r4 is GRCh38, so a GRCh37/hg19 position will not be

No parameters required.

Try it
gene

Gene info + variants. Accepts gene symbol (e.g. "BRCA1") or Ensembl gene id.

No parameters required.

Try it
region

Variants in a genomic region (≤25kb recommended). You MUST say which genome build your start/stop are in via assembly — there is no default, because a position is valid in both builds and a wrong gues

No parameters required.

Try it
transcript

Fetch gnomAD variant data for an Ensembl transcript (ENST…), returning transcript coordinates, gene symbol, chromosome position, and per-variant allele counts (ac/an) from exome and genome datasets.

No parameters required.
