Frequently asked questions
AI-generated answers based on this skill's SKILL.md and metadata
How do I look up allele frequency in gnomAD and 1000 Genomes with tooluniverse-population-genetics?
tooluniverse-population-genetics provides integrated allele frequency lookup across gnomAD and 1000 Genomes cohorts. Search by variant position or gene name to retrieve population-level frequencies stratified by ancestry group, enabling cross-population comparison and identification of rare or population-specific variants.
Can tooluniverse-population-genetics test Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium?
Yes. tooluniverse-population-genetics includes Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium testing and calculation of population genetics statistics. Input genotype counts or allele frequencies to assess deviation from equilibrium, detect population substructure, or identify potential genotyping artifacts.
What GWAS associations and disease trait signals does tooluniverse-population-genetics find?
tooluniverse-population-genetics integrates GWAS Catalog data to retrieve published associations between genetic variants and diseases or traits. Query by variant, gene, or phenotype to interpret genetic signals, review effect sizes, and link to original studies.
How does tooluniverse-population-genetics assess variant pathogenicity?
tooluniverse-population-genetics combines constraint metrics (pLI, LOEUF), functional annotation (VEP), and clinical databases (ClinVar) to evaluate pathogenicity. Cross-reference variant consequences, population frequency, and expert classifications to support clinical interpretation.
Can I analyze population structure and evolutionary constraint with this tool?
tooluniverse-population-genetics supports Fst divergence analysis, ancestry inference, and evolutionary constraint scoring. Examine selection pressure, population differentiation, and haplotype diversity across cohorts to characterize population structure and evolutionary patterns.
What constraint scores and functional annotations are available?
tooluniverse-population-genetics provides gene constraint scores (pLI, LOEUF), variant consequence predictions (VEP), regulatory scoring (RegulomeDB), and pathogenicity measures (CADD). Combine these annotations to prioritize variants for functional or clinical follow-up.

Population Genetics Analysis
MC Strategy: Population genetics MC questions often test whether you know a specific theorem or result. COMPUTE the answer first (use popgen_calculator.py or write Python), then match to options. Don't try to reason about which option "sounds right."
Analyze population-level genetic variation, allele frequencies, GWAS associations, clinical significance, and evolutionary constraints using ToolUniverse tools.
When to Use
Activate this skill when the user asks about: - Allele frequencies across populations (gnomAD, 1000 Genomes) - GWAS associations for diseases/traits - Clinical variant interpretation (ClinVar, VEP) - Gene-level constraint metrics (pLI, LOEUF, o/e ratios) - Selection, drift, linkage disequilibrium, or population structure -

Query the 1000 Genomes Project (IGSR) to find populations and samples stratified by superpopulation codes, explore data collections, and retrieve population-specific allele frequencies. Combine population metadata with GWAS tools to analyze ancestry-dependent genetic associations and identify population-specific effects.
PLINK2 is a high-performance tool for genome-wide association studies and population genetics on large cohorts. It processes PLINK binary, VCF, and BGEN formats while performing sample and variant quality control, kinship estimation, principal component analysis, and linear or logistic regression association testing. Output is compatible with Manhattan plots and meta-analysis workflows.
Identify genes associated with diseases and traits by querying GWAS Catalog and Open Targets Genetics data. This skill ranks candidate genes using locus-to-gene scores that combine eQTL, chromatin interaction, and distance evidence—moving beyond simple nearest-gene approaches. Results include p-values, replication counts, and confidence levels to guide target prioritization for drug discovery and functional validation.
This skill applies Bayesian fine-mapping methods to pinpoint causal variants within GWAS-associated regions, moving beyond the lead SNP to compute posterior probabilities for each variant in a credible set. It integrates locus-to-gene predictions and functional annotations to link variants to their target genes, helping researchers distinguish true causal effects from linkage disequilibrium artifacts.
This skill enables systematic comparison of genome-wide association studies for any trait, aggregating effect sizes across studies and evaluating replication success. It integrates GWAS Catalog and Open Targets Genetics data to identify consistently replicated loci, detect heterogeneity from population and design differences, and assess study quality by sample size and ancestry diversity.
Access the NHGRI-EBI GWAS Catalog to find genetic variant associations with diseases and traits. Search by rs ID, phenotype, gene, or genomic region to retrieve p-values, effect sizes, and study metadata for epidemiological research and risk score development.
