SVOC (Somatic Variant Oncogenicity Classifier) is a SOP-driven tool for genome-wide somatic variant oncogenicity classification.
Two efficient modes were provided for accessing variant classification:
1. Data retrieval: Specific variants or genes can be rapidly queried through this mode. Results are retrieved directly from a database of over 450,000 pre-computed variants located in 758 cancer genes, typically within seconds. Querying by a gene name returns the classification records for all its documented variants stored in the database.
2. Online classification: For any one or more variants within the whole genome, a standardized VCF file can be uploaded via this mode. The system then executes a backend algorithm to parse and classify the submitted variants in real time.
Note: Currently, Data retrieval only supports the retrieval of SNVs based on the GRCh37/hg19 reference genome version. If you need to search for InDels or variants based on GRCh38/hg38, please use Online Classification and upload a VCF file containing the variant for real-time classification (VCF files with a single variant are also supported).
