+<h2>Description</h2>
+
+<div class="warn-note" style="border: 2px solid #9e5900; padding: 5px 20px; background-color: #ffe9cc;">
+<p><span style="font-weight: bold; color: #c70000;">NOTE:</span><br> 
+LOVD is intended for use primarily by physicians and other
+professionals concerned with genetic disorders, by genetics researchers, and
+by advanced students in science and medicine. While the LOVD database is
+open to the public, users seeking information about a personal medical or
+genetic condition are urged to consult with a qualified physician for
+diagnosis and for answers to personal questions.  Further, please be
+sure to visit the <a href = "http://www.lovd.nl/3.0/home"
+target="_blank">LOVD web site</a> for the very latest, as they are continually 
+updating data.</p>
+
+<p><span style="font-weight: bold; color: #c70000;">DOWNLOADS:</span><br>
+LOVD databases are owned by their respective curators
+and are not available for download or mirroring 
+by any third party without their permission.  Batch queries on this track are only available via the
+UCSC Beacon API (see below). See also the
+<a href= "http://lovd.nl/2.0/index_list.php" target="_blank">LOVD web site</A>
+for a list of database installations and the respective curators. </p></div>
+
+<p>
+This track shows the genomic positions of all <b>public</b> entries in public
+installations of the Leiden Open Variation Database system (<a
+href="http://www.lovd.nl/3.0/home" target="_blank">LOVD</a>) and the effect of the 
+variant, if annotated.  
+UCSC does not host any further information.  To get details on a variant
+(bibliographic reference, phenotype, disease, patient, etc.), follow the
+&quot;Link to LOVD&quot; to the central server at Leiden, which will then redirect you
+to the details page on the particular LOVD server reporting this variant.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+LOVD is a flexible, freely-available tool for gene-centered collection and
+display of DNA variations.  It is not a database itself, but rather a platform
+where curators store and analyze data.  While the LOVD team and the biggest LOVD
+sites are run at the Leiden University Medical Center, LOVD installations and their
+curators are spread over the whole world. Most LOVD databases report at least 
+some of their content back to Leiden to allow global cross-database search, which
+is, among others, exported to this UCSC Genome Browser track every month.
+</p>
+<p>A few LOVD databases are entirely missing from this track. Reasons include configuration issues and 
+intentionally blocked data search. During the last check in June 2015, the following databases did not export any variants:
+http://www.ucl.ac.uk/ldlr/Current/,
+http://brca.iarc.fr/LOVD/,
+http://bioinf4.fcm.unicamp.br/LOVD/,
+http://vitigene.igib.res.in,
+http://fishmap2.igib.res.in/mirlovd/,
+http://www.medgen.mcgill.ca/nndi/,

+http://www.genomed.org/lovd2/,
+http://skingenetics.igib.res.in/,
+http://mitodyn.org/. Curators who want to share data in their database so it is present in this track can find more details in the <a href="http://www.lovd.nl/3.0/faq#FAQ18">LOVD FAQ</a></p>
+
+
+<h2>Batch queries</h2>
+<p>The LOVD data is not available for download or for batch queries in the Table Browser. 
+However, it is available for programmatic access via the <a href="https://ga4gh.org/#/beacon">Global
+Alliance Beacon API</a>, a web service that accepts queries in the form
+(genome, chromosome, position, allele) and returns "true" or "false" depending on whether there
+is information about this allele in the database. For more details see our 
+<a href="hgBeacon">Beacon Server</a>. </p>
+<p>To find all LOVD databases that contain variants of a given gene, you can get a list of databases by constructing a url in the format geneSymbol.lovd.nl, for example, <a href="https://grenada.lumc.nl/LSDB_list/lsdbs/TP53">tp53.lovd.nl</a>. You can then use the LOVD API to retrieve more detailed information from a particular database. See the <a href="http://www.lovd.nl/3.0/faq#FAQ15">LOVD FAQ</a>. 
+</p>
+<h2>Display Conventions and Configuration</h2>
+
+<p>
+Genomic locations of LOVD variation entries are labeled with the gene symbol
+and the description of the mutation according to <a
+href="http://www.hgvs.org/mutnomen/" target="_blank">Human Gene Variation Society
+standards</a>. For instance, the label AGRN:c.172G&gt;A means that the cDNA of AGRN is
+mutated from G to A at position 172.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+Since October 2017, the functional effect for variants is shown on the
+details page, if annotated. The possible
+values are: notClassified, functionAffected, notThisDisease, notAnyDisease,
+functionProbablyAffected, functionProbablyNotAffected, functionNotAffected
+unknown. LOVD does not use the term "pathogenic", please see the <a
+href="http://varnomen.hgvs.org/bg-material/basics/">HGVS Terminology page</a> for more details.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+All other information is shown on the respective LOVD variation page, accessible via the
+&quot;Link to LOVD&quot; above.
