Convert Chromosome Accession using mutalyzer

This will be demonstrated in Go language.

Currently when we need to search for clinical data in Clinvar at NCBI, we have to search by format like “NC_000005.10:g.25502166_25502169dup”. To convert from chromosome name like “chr1” to “NC_000001.11”, we can use mutalyzer API.

Details for the API documentation can be found in here.

Below is the code demonstration to convert in Go:

Running this will format the chromosome value like

chr1,NC_000001.11
chr2,NC_000002.12
chr3,NC_000003.12
chr4,NC_000004.12
chr5,NC_000005.10
chr6,NC_000006.12
chr7,NC_000007.14
chr8,NC_000008.11
chr9,NC_000009.12
chr10,NC_000010.11
chr11,NC_000011.10
chr12,NC_000012.12
chr13,NC_000013.11
chr14,NC_000014.9
chr15,NC_000015.10
chr16,NC_000016.10
chr17,NC_000017.11
chr18,NC_000018.10
chr19,NC_000019.10
chr20,NC_000020.11
chr21,NC_000021.9
chr22,NC_000022.11

Hope it helps!!!

PEACE~~
