Sanger Imputation Service

Sanger Imputation Service

Sanger genotype imputation and phasing service is a web-based tool at Wellcome Sanger Institute. The service pipeline uses EAGLE2 or SHAPEIT2 for pre-phasing, EAGLE2 for phasing, and PBWT (Positional Burrows-Wheeler Transform) for genotype imputation. The service currently offers the following reference panels: 1. Haplotype Reference Consortium, 2. African Genome Resources, 3. 1000 Genomes Phase 3, 4. UK10K, 5. UK10K + 1000 Genomes Phase 3.
