Pathogenic Variants in a Genomic interval

Hello Guys,

I would like to ask that if it is possible to find all the Clinvar pathogenic mutations in a given genomic interval. After an RNA-seq analysis, I got more than 100 genomic intervals as a BED file and I didn't find an easy way to find all the pathogenic mutations in the genomic intervals. Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you,

You can download the VCF from ClinVar and then use tabix to retrieve all variants overlapping with your intervals. From there on, filter for variant classification being pathogenic.

Thank you for assistance, I ve downloaded Clinvar records as VCF, but tabix is not working properly for the overlapping. I' ve sorted VCF and Bed files but appearing some errors such as "[ti_index_core ] the file out of order at line 5" . Should I remove the header lines of VCF?

You could use BioMart. Use the short variation database, filter by your genomic region and clinical significance.

Dear Emily, thank you for the help, I tried the website and want to ask that is possible to upload BED file for the region, it didn' work and I 've changed the format of BED file as 1:123425:112356:1 , but still didn't return back any data I didn't understand the problem :(
