[ensembl-dev] 1000 genomes

[Andy Yates]

Hi,

I'm sorry we do not support retrieving minor allele frequencies from the REST service. However this looks like it should be something we can add onto the service in the near future. I'll add it to our issue tracker and will try to keep you up to date as & when we make this information available.

Andy
