EnsemblReg Get Constrained Elements
Get evolutionarily constrained elements in a genomic region from the Ensembl Compara database. Constrained elements are regions under purifying selection across species, indicating functional importance. Higher scores indicate stronger conservation. Use this to identify regulatory regions, coding exons, or other functional elements that are preserved across evolution. Essential for prioritizing non-coding variants and understanding regulatory conservation. Example: TP53 locus (chr17:7661779-768…
Overview
Get evolutionarily constrained elements in a genomic region from the Ensembl Compara database. Constrained elements are regions under purifying selection across species, indicating functional importance. Higher scores indicate stronger conservation. Use this to identify regulatory regions, coding exons, or other functional elements that are preserved across evolution. Essential for prioritizing non-coding variants and understanding regulatory conservation. Example: TP53 locus (chr17:7661779-7687538) returns 20 constrained elements with conservation scores up to 47.
