CusVarDB is a windows based tool for creating a variant protein database from Next-generation sequencing datasets. The program supports variant calling for Genome, RNA-Seq and ExomeSeq datasets. The program performs mainly 4 modules
1. Align the datasets with reference database
2. Perform the variant calling using Genome Analysis Toolkit (GATK)
3. Annotate the variant using ANNOVAR
4. Create the variant protein database
Apart from the main modules, the program also supports additional functions such as
1. Download the SRA
2. Convert the SRA file to fastq file format
3. Download the annotation (ANNOVAR) database and Dry-run concept to customize the commands
