Data sources & attribution¶
Yeliztli's own source code is released under the MIT license. To annotate your genome it
draws on several public scientific datasets, each retained under its own license. This
page summarises them; the repository
NOTICE file holds the full,
authoritative attribution text, and LICENSE
covers Yeliztli's code.
For sizes and how each is obtained, see reference data.
Bundled / redistributed data¶
These are packaged with Yeliztli (or its release bundles), so their licenses permit redistribution.

Only redistributable scores are bundled
Of the PGS Catalog, only the clearly redistributable CC-BY-4.0 scores are bundled — PGS000713 (type-2 diabetes), PGS005198 (BMI), and PGS000688 (LDL cholesterol). Non-commercial or author-restricted scores (such as the eBMD score, PGS000657) are not bundled and must be fetched by the user. Yeliztli deliberately excludes academic-license-restricted predictor columns (SpliceAI, CADD, REVEL, SIFT, PolyPhen) from the gnomAD bundle.
Downloaded from the provider¶
These are fetched from their original sources during setup/updates and used locally; they are not redistributed by Yeliztli.

Mind the licenses for your use
Some sources — notably dbNSFP (academic/non-commercial) and the share-alike PharmGKB/FDA-derived data — carry conditions. If you build on Yeliztli or its data, make sure your use complies with each source's terms.
