The GWAS catalog management has migrated to EMBL/EBI. Use data(ebicat38) for an image dated 3 August 2015. Use makeCurrentGwascat() to get a more recent image. Use data(ebicat37) for a GRCh37 (or hg19) liftOver result. Use data(ebicat37UCSC) for an image with hg19 as genome tag and UCSC seqnames.

The data objects

'g17SM' 'gg17N' 'gw6.rs_17' 'low17' 'rules_6.0_1kg_17' 'gwrngs'

are described in vignettes.

The DataFrame function is imported from IRanges.

The SnpMatrix-class is used to represent data related to rule-based imputation, using the impute.snps function.

si.hs.38 is a Seqinfo-class instance for hg38.
