Markdown versions of documentation pages are available by appending `.md` to page URLs; this page is available as [Markdown](https://help.connected.illumina.com/emedgene/emedgene-analyze-manual/variant_page/clinical_significance_section/variant-info/resources.md). # Resources The Resources field provides links to external databases with pre-filled search queries, helping users efficiently gather supporting evidence for variant interpretation. ## Available resources * **UCSC Genome Browser** * **GeneCards** (retired in v100.39.0) * **PubMed** * **WikiGenes** (retired in v100.39.0) * **Google Scholar** (v100.39.0+) * **LitVar2** (v100.39.0+) * **Genomenon** ## How search queries are built ### v100.39.0+ and above Search queries are built using **detailed variant information** whenever possible. The smart query builder: * Supports variant aliases * Takes variant type into account for more precise and context-aware results The query logic varies by variant type: * **SNVs/indels (including mtDNA):** Includes gene symbol, dbSNP identifier, HGVS coding change, and HGVS protein change across affected transcripts * **CNVs:** Includes gene symbol, ISCN notation, cytoband, genomic location, and standard terms like «CNV», «deletion» and similar * **SV insertions:** Includes gene symbol, cytoband, genomic location, and standard SV descriptors, and standard terms like «SV», «rearrangement» and similar ### Versions prior to v100.39.0 Search queries are based on **gene information** only. --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com. ## Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question. Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://help.connected.illumina.com/emedgene/emedgene-analyze-manual/variant_page/clinical_significance_section/variant-info/resources.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
