# Mutaion Analysis

The Mutation Analysis tool of our web server is designed to predict the likelihood of break occurrences near a specified point mutation. This feature is crafted to provide insights in a user-friendly interface.

## Specify a Mutant Position

You will need to provide the following details for the mutation analysis:

* **Assembly Version:** Select the reference genome assembly version that corresponds to your data.
* **Mutation Position:** Enter the specific genomic position (chromosome and position) of the mutation you are analyzing.
* **Alleles:** Indicate the alleles involved in the mutation, detailing both the wild-type and the mutated nucleotides.

## Get the Result

Once the process is completed, the results will be available on the results page.

SSBlazer predicts the probability of single-strand breaks within a range of -125 to +125 base pairs from the specified mutation position. Our genome browser interface will display these probabilities, contrasting the wild-type genome against the mutant genome for easy comparison and analysis.
