Number of entries: 550
Number of genes: 884
Number of variants: 3144
Build 3 of the LongevityMap represents mostly a qualitative improvement, after the major quantitative update in build 2. No new entries were added but dozens of entries were updated with improved annotation from the latest human genome assembly. Because we rebuilt the data, ID numbers were reshuffled when compared to previous builds.
Please remember these notes refer to the latest stable build of the LongevityMap. The current LongevityMap stats may differ slightly from the above due to improvements after the build's release.
More information concerning the design and curation of the LongevityMap is available elsewhere. Use of the LongevityMap is free but subject to the conditions of the Human Ageing Genomic Resources. To cite the LongevityMap please use:
