+class RSnprelate(RPackage):
+    """Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) are widely used to investigate
+       the genetic basis of diseases and traits, but they pose many
+       computational challenges. We developed an R package SNPRelate to
+       provide a binary format for single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) data
+       in GWAS utilizing CoreArray Genomic Data Structure (GDS) data files.
+       The GDS format offers the efficient operations specifically designed
+       for integers with two bits, since a SNP could occupy only two bits.
+       SNPRelate is also designed to accelerate two key computations on SNP
+       data using parallel computing for multi-core symmetric multiprocessing
+       computer architectures: Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and
+       relatedness analysis using Identity-By-Descent measures. The SNP GDS
+       format is also used by the GWASTools package with the support of S4
+       classes and generic functions. The extended GDS format is implemented
+       in the SeqArray package to support the storage of single nucleotide
+       variations (SNVs), insertion/deletion polymorphism (indel) and
+       structural variation calls."""
