Dear Big Y Customers,
We've been quietly working on some big updates to Big Y, and want to give you a first look before the release goes live, October 10th!
Once the release is live, we will be recalculating Big Y matches. We anticipate this taking approximately 5-7 days. During this time, you will see "Results Pending" in the Big Y section. You will be notified by email once your results are processed and ready.
What’s New?
Here’s the breakdown of what we added and how it all works
Human Genome 38
We’ve updated from hg19 to hg38. This is a more accurate representation of the human genome and is the most recent version referenced by the human genome community.
Some of the advantages of hg38 are:
Better mapping of NGS data to the proper location
Consideration of alternative haplotypes across the genome
Terminal SNP Guide
We’ve added a terminal SNP Guide that allows you to view and filter the branches closest to your terminal branch on the haplotree.
BIG Y Browser
We’re giving you the ability to view your SNP data from Big Y. This will allow you to personally assess all SNP call positions that are being evaluated for matching purposes. This data will be continuously updated.
