Small Variants Summary

This table provides metrics about the number of SNVs, deletions, and insertions.

Table 4   Small Variants Summary Table

Statistic

Definition

Total Passing

The total number of variants present in the data set that passed the variant quality filters.

Percent Found in dbSNP

100*(Number of variants in dbSNP/Number of variants).

Het/Hom Ratio

Number of heterozygous variants/Number of homozygous variants.

Ts/Tv Ratio

Transition rate of SNVs that pass the quality filters divided by transversion rate of SNVs that pass the quality filters. Transitions are interchanges of purines (A, G) or of pyrimidines (C, T). Transversions are interchanges between purine and pyrimidine bases (for example, A to T).

Number in Exons

The number of variants that fall into an exon.

Number in Coding Regions

The number of variants that fall into a coding region.

Number in UTR Regions

The number of variants that fall into an untranslated region (UTR).

Number in Splice Site Regions

Statistic

Definition

Frameshifts

The number of variants that cause a frameshift.

Non-synonymous

The number of variants that cause an amino acid change in a coding region.

Synonymous

The number of variants that are within a coding region, but do not cause an amino acid change.

Stop Gained

The number of variants that cause an additional stop codon.

Stop Lost

The number of variants that cause the loss of a stop codon.
