Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en" id="humu22474-abs-0001"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p>Variobox is a new tool to support the sequence analysis workflow through the exploration of individual patient genes and their variants, taking advantage of available web‐sourced knowledge. The application obtains up‐to‐date information about a gene and its variants, and is able to align patient sequences with reference genes and automatically infer variant annotations using HGVS nomenclature. <boxed-text content-type="graphic" position="anchor" orientation="portrait"><graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgg407qd9vx" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></boxed-text></p> </abstract>
