About HGVD

HGVD (Human Genetic Variation Database)は、2013年に国内で初めて公開された日本人のゲノム情報データベースです。

このデータベースは京都大学医学研究科附属ゲノム医学センターを研究代表者とする厚生労働省難病実用化研究により2013年に構築され、予算措置が終了したあとは、同センターで獲得したAMED委託研究費などで維持・管理されておりました。HGVDは構築されて以来、アクセス回数約380万回、データダウンロード回数7,700回という実績を上げており、また発表論文は220回の引用があり、医学・生命科学のコミュニティに対し極めて大きな貢献をしてまいりました。

2020年度でAMED委託研究費は終了しましたが、HGVDを長期にわたって運営しさらに発展させることは、研究者コミュニティに対する責務であると考え、HGVDの権利をゲノム医学センターの研究成果を活用したスピンオフベンチャーであるジェノコンシェルジュ京都株式会社に移管し、弊社がHGVDの継続的なアップデートおよびメンテナンスの業務を承継しました。

このデータベースには、日本人の遺伝的背景を網羅する約4200名の検体群からゲノム上の変異情報が集約されています。このようなゲノム配列情報をデータベースを通じて公開・共有することは、重複を回避した効率的な研究の実施と、さらなる医学的価値の高い成果の創出に必要不可欠であり、難病の原因変異やがんのドライバー変異の絞り込み、ゲノムワイド関連解析におけるジェノタイプ推定、薬の開発、副作用の軽減など、個の医療に資する有用な情報源となることが期待されます。

弊社への移管を機に、これまで多くのご要望を頂戴していたHGVDの商用利用もしていただけるようにいたしました。商用利用の際にお支払いいただく使用料で、継続的なHGVDのアップデートやメンテナンスにかかわる経費を賄い、これまで通り非営利の研究利用には無償でご利用いただきます。

The Human Genetic Variation Database (HGVD) is the first Japanese genetic variation database released in 2013. This database, which has been constructed and maintained by the Center for Genomic Medicine fo Kyoto University, and succeeded by GenoConcierge Kyoto, Inc., contains genomic variation information from approximately 4,200 samples covering the genetic background of Japanese population. The release and sharing of such genome sequence information through the database is essential for refined genetic analyses such as the efficient survey of causative mutations associated with intractable diseases or cancer, precise genotype imputation in genome-wide association studies, and prediction of side effects of drugs.

Your acceptance of Terms and Conditions of Use

Access to HGVD is subject to the Terms and Conditions of Use described on this page. Your use of HGVD constitutes your agreement to these Terms and Conditions of Use.


Acknowledgment for Publication

This work was supported by the Research Grant (201238002A) for Intractable Diseases from the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare of Japan. 

HGVD Data Release

The current data release is taken from 1,208 samples of exome sequencing data. Five centers applied different combinations of exome capture and sequencing platforms on a subset of samples. The sequences obtained from the individuals were aligned to the reference genome (NCBI Build 37) using the Burrows-Wheeler Aligner or Novoalign (data from YCU). Downstream analyses such as the removal of potential PCR duplicates, recalibration of base quality values, local realignment and variation call were processed using Samtools, Picard, and GATK.
