Each gene name is linked to a list of samples in the collection with mutations in the specific gene. If any of the samples has characterized mutations, a list of the allelic variants will be provided. Each allelic variant is linked to a list of samples with the specific mutation. The diseases accessed through that list have numerous known mutations, each of which is listed in a table for the specific disease. Searches are case-insensitive.
Repository numbers are alphanumeric composed of two letters and five numbers.
For a search to be successful, one must use all seven digits. For example, only GM00010 will return results, not GM10. Occassionally, in publications, the leading zeros may be truncated when samples are cited. It is important to include those when searching for a particular sample. Affected individuals from any disease in the collection may be found using the structured search.
