Functional annotation
As part of our phase 1 analysis we performed functional annotation of our phase 1 variants with respect to both coding and non-coding annotation from GENCODE and the ENCODE project respectively.
This functional annotation can be found in our phase 1 analysis results directory. We present both the annotation we compared the variants to and VCF files which contain the functional consequences for each variant.
Gene expresssion
The most important available existing expression datasets involving 1000 Genomes individuals are probably the following:
- RNAseq (mRNA & miRNA) on 465 individuals (CEU, TSI, GBR, FIN, YRI)
Pre-publication RNA-sequencing data from the Geuvadis project is available

- RNAseq on 60 CEU individual [1]

- Expression arrays on about 800 HapMap 3 individuals with a lot of overlap with 1000g data [1,2]
