    <p>Dear Manos,<br>
      <br>
    </p>
    One alternative solution would be to use the Ensembl REST API - <a
      moz-do-not-send="true"
      href="https://rest.ensembl.org/documentation/info/overlap_id">Overlap
      endpoint</a> (1 gene at a time).<br>
    e.g.: <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="https://rest.ensembl.org/overlap/id/ENSG00000182533?content-type=application/json;feature=variation">https://rest.ensembl.org/overlap/id/ENSG00000182533?content-type=application/json;feature=variation</a><br>
    <p>However this might take some times for the genes overlapping a
      great number of variants.<br>
    </p>
    <p>Otherwise, you could use directly the Ensembl Perl API.<br>
    </p>
    <p>I hope this helps.</p>
    <p>Best regards,<br>

      <p>Hi,</p>
      <p><br>
      </p>
      <p>I am using biomaRt to query the ensembl for SNPs using 50-300
        genes as filter option.</p>
      <p>However this process is very time consuming and most of the
        times i am getting errors. </p>
      <p>I also used the command in for loop by querying one gene at the
        time and then combine the list.</p>
      <p>I would like to ask if there is a faster way to query the SNPs.
        The only information i need is the SNP id and the Gene id.</p>
      <p>Best,</p>
      <p>Manos</p>
