<p>I have a list of all SNPs (a list of RsIDs) that fall in the coding sequence of several thousand human genes, and I'm looking for a convenient method to come up with a list of known SNPs that alter an amino acid in those genes.</p>

<p>I'll be glad to hear your thoughts.</p>

Are you open to commercial (non-free) solutions? Also, http://varso.me is a great tool but it can't take batch requests.
