2022 Update #1 : On January 15, 2022 we added 1965 new full-length (FL) and 457 new control region (CR) GenBank sequences to our database. This brings our total number of FL sequences to 54,594 and the number of CR sequences to 75,427. Several hundred alternately-annotated indel variants were removed due to our adoption of the HGVS 3' rule. Our SNVs now total 19,391. We update our GenBank sequences every 4-6 months. Hand curation of variants and references continues weekly. See the GenBank Frequency Info page for details about our current sequence sets.

2022 Special Update [January 26, 2022] : We are pleased to announce that we have added Mitoscape to the Mitomap web site. Mitoscape is a big-data, machine-learning workflow for obtaining mtDNA sequence from NGS data, published by Singh et al November 2021, doi: 10.1371/journal.pcbi.1009594. The link to Mitoscape is in the left menu.

2021 Special Update [March 23, 2021] : We are pleased to announce that we have updated Allele Search to give you direct access to more variant data. New features include allele frequencies from gnomAD v3.1 and the Helix database, pathogenicity consensus scores for coding variants from MitImpact ’s APOGEE tool, and conservation percentages.
