# comment1 when marked with "*" = uncertain ancestral allele
# comment2: In some rare cases, across the three archaics, there are different alleles. Then the site would be considered tri-allelic and the ALT field contains, for example, "A,G".
# comment3: There may be "N" and "." for different states of missing CAnc.
# comment4: At triallelic sites, 1 refers the the alternative allele noted two columns further; 0.5 is mostly REF/ALT, but in very rare cases two different alternative alleles (ALT1/ALT2); in such cases the information would be incomplete in this table, but can be found in the original genotype calls (http://cdna.eva.mpg.de/neandertal/Vindija/VCF/). The information for the other archaic individuals is analogous.
# comment5: Filtering criteria are: GQ>=20 & Coverage>=5 & Coverage<=105(Altai)|75(Vindija/Denisova) & Heterozygous_balance>=0.2 & no InDels & MapabilityUniqueness35mer==1. Genotypes are retrieved from uniquely mapped sequences with mapping quality>=25.
# comment6: The following format is used: Full_coverage_across_individuals:Altai=X,Proportion_non_reference_reads,Vindija=X,Proportion_non_reference_reads,Denisova=X,Proportion_non_reference_reads[,others=X]. Other individuals from Hybridization capture experiments: VE=Vindija_exome,SE=Sidron_exome,V21=Vindija_chr21,S21=Sidron_chr21.
# comment7: ENSR=regulatory feature; ENST=transcript
# comment8: Often there are many consequences (3_prime_UTR;downstream etc.) overlapping at the same SNP, all are aggregated to one here.
# comment9: Not exactly frequency, but allele counts among 138 Pan chromosomes, wherever applicable (data was filtered, so not all sites are included). Should ideally be 138 or close, i.e. Pan species are alternative/ancestral for all individuals.
# comment10: Could be several cDNA/protein positions, because different transcripts have different start points: codons should mostly be the same.
# comment11: AFR=African,AMR=Americans,EAS=EastAsians,EUR=Europeans,SAS=SouthAsians
# comment12: This is often different from 1000G and archaic alternative, since it is 1000s of different exomes with many singleton mutations.
# comment13: ExAC: Adj_MAF=Adjusted global frequency,AFR=African,AMR=American,EAS=EastAsians,FIN=Finnish,NFE=NonFinnishEurooeans,SAS=SouthAsians,OTH=OtherPopulations; NHLBI-ESP: AA=African American,EA=European American
# comment14: Format is Individual:allele,filter_pass,genotype. VE=Vindija_exome,SE=Sidron_exome,V21=Vindija_chr21,S21=Sidron_chr21; Filter means coverage >=5 & Coverage<=75(Vindija)|50(Sidron), this is to include or exclude potential support for other genotypes; about genotypes see comment4.
