This database has been established by the Growth Consortium. The variants we have collected can be visualised without registration, just follow the links on these pages (for an explanation regarding all possibilities see Documentation). Note that the database contains much more information (esp. regarding the phenotype) then displayed. Part of this non-public data can be queried, retrieving the number of records fulfilling your query (see Search through hidden entries and Documentation). To get actual access to the non-public data you have to contact the curator(s).
When you study the genes we cover, please consider to become an active collaborator, register as submitter, login and submit the patients/variants you have studied. Note that these databases have most value when really ALL variants are reported.
