Abstract: Most of the variants in the genome are at the non-coding region. While variations in the coding region effect the protein, variations in non-coding region effect the regulatory mechanism. Therefore, observation of non-coding variations may ensure to identify variations that effect gene expression. eQTL is a popular method used for the purpose to determine the SNPs that effect the gene expression. We have implemented a python based, easy-to-use tool to understand the relationship between the somatic SNPs and gene expression based on eQTL analysis.
