Splice site effect prediction

This tool will analyze a variant track to determine whether the variants fall within potential splice sites. A transcript track has to be selected as shown in figure 26.29.

Figure 26.29: The splice site annotation.

If a variant falls within two base pairs of an intron-exon boundary, it will annotated as a possible splice site disruption. As part of the dialog you can choose to exclude all variants that do not fall within a splice site.
