VCF to RAW File service

About VCF to RAW Conversion

This service converts your VCF file into the RAW DNA file format, which can be utilized for third-party analysis.

VCF (Variant Call Format) is a file format used to store genetic data, including information about an individual's DNA sequence variants. A RAW DNA FILE is a common file format to store genetic data.

Important Information

Compatibility Notice

This service is NOT compatible with MyHeritage, FTDNA, or LivingDNA. These platforms have specific restrictions on the types of RAW DNA files that users can upload.

Understanding VCF Files

VCF files only contain information about SNPs that are different from a reference genome. The reference genome is like a standard set of genes that scientists use to compare other genomes to.

When a VCF file is created, it compares a person's genome to the reference genome and only includes information about the differences (SNPs). This means VCF files lack complete DNA information that some platforms require.

For example, let’s say that the reference genome has the word “cat” in a certain place, and a person’s genome also has the word “cat” in that same place. In this case, there is no SNP, because both genomes have the same word. But if the person’s genome has the word “dog” instead of “cat,” then there is a SNP, because the genomes are different in that place. The VCF file would include information about this SNP, because it’s something that is unique to the person’s genome.

Scientists use VCF files to study how genes differ from person to person and how these differences might affect people’s health or traits. By only including SNPs that are different from the reference genome, VCF files help scientists focus on the genes that are most interesting and useful for their research.

RSID Annotation

We also annotate RSIDs in the VCF if needed. RSID Annotation assigns a unique reference SNP ID (RSID) to genetic variants, mainly SNPs. It helps identify variants, track allele frequencies, and analyze genomic data for research and clinical insights.

Whole Genome Sequencing Note

If you have undergone a whole genome sequencing test (from providers like Nebula Genomics, Dante Labs, Sequencing, Wegene or YSEQ) and have a BAM or CRAM file, please use our WGS to RAW file service instead.

Legal Disclaimer

By using our genomic data service, you acknowledge and agree to the following terms and conditions:

PURPOSE This service is intended solely for ancestry and genealogy research purposes. It is not designed, intended, or suitable for health-related uses or medical purposes.
NO HEALTH PREDICTIONS We explicitly disclaim any responsibility for health predictions or interpretations made from the files provided through this service. Users are strictly prohibited from using our converted data for medical or health-related purposes.
DATA ACCURACY While we strive for accuracy in our imputation process, please be aware of the following limitations: - The imputation process can lead to an error rate of genotypes ranging from 1% to 5%, due to the statistical nature of the process. It is not advisable to utilize the imputed file for health predictions, as there is a chance of encountering false positives/negatives.
THIRD-PARTY USE The compatibility of our imputed files with third-party DNA websites is provided as-is. We do not guarantee the acceptance or proper functioning of our files on all external platforms.
DATA PRIVACY We prioritize the security of your genetic data and provide a link for you to download your imputed data directly from your private account. However, we cannot guarantee absolute security during transmission or storage on your end.
NO WARRANTY This service is provided "as is" without any warranties, express or implied. We do not guarantee the completeness, reliability, or accuracy of the converted data.
LIMITATION OF LIABILITY We shall not be held liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or exemplary damages resulting from your use of this service or the data provided.
USER RESPONSIBILITY You are solely responsible for how you use the imputed data. We strongly recommend consulting with qualified professionals for any health-related concerns or interpretations of genetic data.
COMPLIANCE Users must comply with all applicable laws and regulations regarding the use and sharing of genetic information in their jurisdiction.
CHANGES TO SERVICE We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of this service without prior notice.
By proceeding with our service, you indicate that you have read, understood, and agreed to these terms. If you do not agree with any part of this disclaimer, please do not use our service.
