Assuming I have SNPs data using hg19, how can I know which SNP belongs into which Gene?

The data looks like:

chr10_103577643
chr10_124712463

and so on.

I want to add a column of Gene, which would tell to which Gene the SNP belongs. The file is not a VCF file but a Txt file.

    $\begingroup$ Please edit your question and show us an example of your data. What do you have? A list of rsIDs? A VCF file? Some other format? How many SNPs? $\endgroup$

Use the Variant Effect Predictor(VEP)

  • $\begingroup$ Please don't just post links as answers. It would be great if you could add a short explanation of what VEP is, how to use it etc. Otherwise, this is really a comment and not an answer and would become useless in the (admittedly unlikely) case where the VEP were to be discontinued or its URL changed. For instance, pasting chr10_103577643 into VEP doesn't work, so you could explain what format the data would have to be in. $\endgroup$

You can use snpEff or snpSIFT java annotator also for hg19.
