Features1. WASP input can be either SNPs with flanking sequences or users can input SNP IDs or gene names. 2. When the gene name is given as input, WASP returns full information of the gene including the number of SNP's in that gene. 3. Allows the user to select one or more SNP's [from dbSNP, JSNP, Hapmap, tnSNP] for primer designing.
