File Formats in Bioinformatics Toolbox
Show older comments
I'm interested in trying the bioinformatics toolbox. Is there a way to load a .vcf file into this toolbox, such as those generated from the 1000 Genomes Project? My own data is in Plink bed/bim/fam format, which would also be convenient to load in, although I can convert this to the standard .vcf.

https://github.com/neurospin/plinkio is a python package for reading that format, that you could probably call from MATLAB.

Hi Hary,
It depends on what kind of analysis you are interested in, but genomics viewer does support .vcf format (link).
