Welcome to GeneBe
GeneBe is a platform dedicated to human genetic variant interpretation.
Our Mission
At GeneBe, we make genetic variant analysis accessible and efficient for researchers, clinicians, and geneticists. Our platform aggregates data from reputable sources and offers:
- Comprehensive Variant Information: Including variant function, gnomAD frequencies, ClinVar annotations, and more.
- Free ACMG Pathogenicity Calculator: A powerful tool for assessing genetic variants using ACMG/AMP guidelines.
- Fast and Useful API: Includes a Pandas client for annotating variants in Python and a Java client for VCF file annotation.
- Repository for Variant Annotations: Simplifies variant annotation and enables easy sharing of annotation databases with the community.
- Privacy-Focused Design: No third-party trackers—your data stays secure.
Key Features
- Evergreen Annotations: Continuously updated data from sources like GnomAD, ClinVar, Refseq, and more.
- User-Friendly Interface: Simplifies navigation and exploration of genetic data.
- API Access: Annotate VCF files, Pandas dataframes, or variant lists with ACMG scores, GnomAD frequencies, ClinVar annotations, and effect predictors. Learn more about our API.
- Tools and libraries: Check out our Python client on GitHub and our Java client for VCF annotation at genebe-cli.
Privacy and Security
We take the privacy and security of our users' information seriously:
- No Third-Party Tracking: We do not use Google Analytics or similar frameworks. All user queries and visited pages are private.
- Secure Data Handling: We follow strict protocols to protect your data and do not sell or share personal information with third parties.
- API Query Privacy: We do not store any queries made through our API, only counting the number of queries per day for fair resource usage. See our Rate Limits section for details.
- Data processed in EU: We are localized in European Union and all data is stored and processed here.
