Manhattan plot and LocusZoom plot on the same page #284

Hi, guys:

Besides the classic GWAS Catalog and LocusZoom, recently there are Gene Atlas, GWAS Atlas, IEU Open GWAS, and PheWeb variants such as Pheweb.jp. All these are amazing and wonderful.

However, I am looking for something very simple: a webpage where I could upload GWAS or use existing GWAS to first display a Manhattan plot, and then click on anywhere on the plot (or a top loci table underneath it) to get a LocusZoom plot. Just like Google Map, where we could ZOOM all out to see the whole earth, and we could also ZOOM all in to see a street block.

Don't know if there is such a thing.

Thanks!

Jie

Thanks for the interest!

Our my.locuszoom.org service does provide such a feature, and might be worth a look (click any point to see a region plot, or see the table underneath for your own data). Example: https://my.locuszoom.org/gwas/236887/

Manhattan plots are a separate feature not built into the underlying LocusZoom.js library or the standalone LocalZoom tool. This is because GWAS files can be quite large, and it is useful to process the data once on a web server before rendering.

(Even google maps has to store many copies of imagery at different zoom levels! This is calculated ahead of time, rather than on every new request)

I hope this answers your question! If not, feel free to re-open this issue and we would be happy to follow up.
