Welcome to Sniper V1 SNV Detection Software Tools Package.

SNV detection refers to a range of methods for identifying the existence of single nucleotide variants from the results of next generation sequencing (NGS) experiments. These are computational techniques. Due to the increasing abundance of NGS data, these techniques are becoming increasingly popular for performing SNP genotyping, with a wide variety of algorithms designed for specific experimental designs and applications. In addition to the usual application domain of SNP genotyping, these techniques have been successfully adapted to identify rare SNPs within a population,as well as detecting somatic SNVs within an individual using multiple tissue samples.

This software is designed to run on Linux operating system. It consists of a linux shell file which has the abilty to download and install tools related to our topic of interest, when executed. The GUI allows the user to select specific tools related to his or her interest or requirement.
