"File Annotation Counts" Endpoint Advanced API
Returns an annotated VCF from an input VCF file containing multiple variants as genomic coordinates with each variant in the output file annotated with the number of articles and Mastermind URL for each variant.
Easily integrate evidence from Mastermind into your existing genomics pipeline. Use the API to upload a VCF file, and get automatic annotations from Mastermind.
Mastermind VCF Annotations add annotations to variants containing the nubmer of publications which cite evidence for the variant, along with a URL to investigate the evidence.
Two annotations are added to each variant within the VCF file which contains evidence found by Mastermind in the medical literature:
  1. MMCNT: The number of articles found for this variant.
  2. MMURI: The Mastermind URL to view and investigate the matched articles.
