Using URL parameters

URL parameters

Genome Maps accept the following URL paramteres:

• species=Mus%20musculus or species=hsapiens
• region=1:3073253-3074322 or region=1:3073721
• gene=BRCA2 or gene=ENSG00000236383
• snp=rs190457976

Some Examples

You can find some example links here, above parameters can be combined as shown in some of the examples:

1. Default species is set to human, to open a different species:

   http://www.genomemaps.org/?species=mmusculus

2. To set a specific region:

   http://www.genomemaps.org/?species=mmusculus&region=11:101464999-101471853

3. This URL will fit human BRCA2 gene in the screen:

   http://www.genomemaps.org/?gene=BRCA2

   http://www.genomemaps.org/?gene=ENSG00000236383

4. While this one will open mouse BRAC2 gene:

   http://www.genomemaps.org/?species=mmusculus&gene=BRCA2

5. You can also look for a specific SNP:
