FIRE is a tool that scores genome-wide single nucleotide variants (SNVs) based on their potential to regulate the expression levels of nearby genes.
Pre-computed FIRE scores for all SNVs in hg19/GRCh37 are available for download:
Each file contains 5 columns:
1. chr (chromosome)
2. pos (position in hg19/GRCh37)
3. ref (reference base)
4. alt (alternate base)
5. FIRE (FIRE score between 0 and 1)
Higher FIRE scores reflect greater evidence that the SNV regulates the expression level of one or more nearby genes.
