SNPP: automating large-scale SNP genotype data management

Bioinformatics. 2005 Jan 15;21(2):266-8. doi: 10.1093/bioinformatics/bth486. Epub 2004 Sep 17.

Abstract

To manage high-throughput single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotyping data efficiently, we developed a dynamic general database management system-SNPP (SNP Processor). It provides several functions, including data importing with comparison, Mendelian inheritance check within pedigrees, data compiling and exporting. Furthermore, SNPP may generate files for repeat genotyping and transform them into files that can be executed by a liquid handling system.
