Finding homozygotes with SNP of interest

Hello,

I am a very new person in genetic variation analysis, so my question may be very simple.

I am interested in the SNP rs764867354 in SidT2 gene that leads to loss of a start codon. (http://www.ensembl.org/Homo_sapiens/Variation/Explore?db=core;g=ENSG00000149577;r=11:117178733-117197445;v=rs764867354;vdb=variation;vf=130560261). I want to know if homozygotes for this SNP have been ever found among the sequenced genomes. What should I do to find this out?

Thanks!

Your best resources for that would be ExAC and gnomAD.

Thank you, I have found exactly what I need.

Go to the population genetics page which will display genotype frequencies if these are available. If they're not, then click through to the original submitter and see if they have more information.
