Golden Helix
Actionable In-Silico Results.
Overview
Golden Helix provides a suite of software products for genetic data analysis, primarily focused on the clinical and translational research markets. Their tools, including VarSeq, VS-CNV, and VS-Warehouse, enable users to process raw sequencing data, identify and annotate variants and copy number variations (CNVs), and create clinical-grade reports. The platform is designed to streamline the entire tertiary analysis workflow, from VCF file to final report.
✨ Key Features
- Variant annotation and filtering (VarSeq)
- Copy Number Variation (CNV) analysis (VS-CNV)
- Clinical reporting and workflow automation
- Centralized data warehousing (VS-Warehouse)
- Support for germline and somatic analysis
- Integration of public and proprietary annotations
🎯 Key Differentiators
- Strong focus on integrated CNV analysis from NGS data
- Highly flexible and customizable filtering and reporting workflows
- Desktop-first approach provides speed and data security
Unique Value: Provides a powerful and efficient desktop-based solution for the entire clinical variant interpretation workflow, including robust CNV analysis, enabling labs to deliver high-quality clinical reports.
🎯 Use Cases (4)
✅ Best For
- Implementing ACMG/AMP guidelines for variant classification
- Detecting and interpreting CNVs from NGS data
- Creating customized clinical reports for diagnostic labs
💡 Check With Vendor
Verify these considerations match your specific requirements:
- Primary and secondary NGS data analysis (e.g., alignment, base calling)
- Basic molecular biology research (e.g., cloning)
🏆 Alternatives
Offers one of the most advanced and integrated solutions for CNV analysis from NGS data, a feature that is often less developed in other clinical interpretation platforms. Its desktop nature also appeals to labs with concerns about cloud security.
