JGA-SNP dataset

Summary

The JGA-SNP dataset is a frequency dataset that aggregates variants detected from SNP-chip data in the NBDC Human Database/Japanese Genotype-phenotype Archive (JGA). All JGA data for which an approval for creating secondary data has been obtained are to be aggregated. In June 2024, allele and genotype frequencies aggregated by sex for 45 diseases were added by genotyping using SNP array of 182,557 individuals, performed by BioBank Japanand RIKEN. Note that variants with alternative allele counts of five or fewer are not included.

  • Version/Last updated: 2024/6/28
  • Sample size: 183,884
  • Number of detected variants (alternative alleles): 1,966,919
  • Number of variants after the exclusion: 1,249,724

Terms of use

Rights of Data Users

The rights of data users shall conform to "5-2-1. Open Data" in "5-2. Rights of Data Users" listed in the NBDC Human Data Sharing Guidelines.

  1. The data user can freely present the result of the study for which data from the NBDC Human Database are used.
  2. The data user can freely acquire intellectual property rights based on the result of the study for which data from the NBDC Human Database are used.

Responsibilities of Data Users

Terms of "5-3-1. Open Data" in "5-3. Responsibilities of Data Users" listed in the NBDC Human Data Sharing Guidelines shall apply with modification to the responsibilities of data users. As for redistribution of data, terms for controlled-access data shall apply because this dataset was generated by processing controlled-access data.

  2. The data user must comply with the following rules.
    • The use of data is limited to the study being undertaken.
    • Identification of individuals is prohibited
    • Redistribution of data is prohibited.
  3. The data user must add the following citation while using the data in public (e.g. publishing an article).

List of 45 diseases included in JGAD000123 from BioBank Japan and RIKEN

We have published the frequencies aggregated by disease and sex for the dataset JGAD000123 in June 2024. In some cases, multiple disease names were assigned to the same sample. Please see the publication below for details about the samples. By using the “Alternative allele frequency/count” in the Advanced search, you can search for variants based on the frequencies aggregated by disease and sex.
