 <h3>Sequence Ontology (SO)</h3>
 
 <p>
 Variants are classified by EVA into one of the following <a target="_blank"
 href="http://www.sequenceontology.org/">sequence ontology</a> terms:
 </p>
 
 <ul>
   <li> <b>substitution</b> &mdash;
        A single nucleotide in the reference is replaced by another, alternate allele.
   <li> <b>deletion</b> &mdash; 
        One or more nucleotides are deleted.  The representation in the database is to
        display one additional nucleotide in both the Reference field (Ref) and the 
-       Alternate Allele field (Alt).  E.g. a variant that is a deletion of an A
-       maybe be represented as Ref = GA and Alt = G.

        be represented as Ref = G and Alt = GT.
   <li> <b>delins</b> &mdash; 
        Similar to a tandem repeat, in that the runs of Ref and Alt Alleles are of
        different length, except that there is more than one type of nucleotide,
        e.g., Ref = CCAAAAACAAAAACA, Alt = ACAAAAAC.
   <li> <b>multipleNucleotideVariant</b> &mdash; 
        More than one nucleotide is substituted by an equal number of different 
        nucleotides, e.g.,  Ref = AA, Alt = GC.
   <li> <b>sequence alteration</b> &mdash;
        A parent term meant to signify a deviation from another sequence. Can be
        assigned to variants that have not been characterized yet.
 </ul>

 Data were downloaded from the European Variation Archive EVA

 <p>
 Variants were then colored according to their predicted consequence in the following fashion:
 <ul>
 <li><b><font color=red>Protein-altering variants</font></b> and 
   <b><font color=red> splice site variants</font></b> 
 - exon_loss_variant, frameshift_variant, 
 inframe_deletion, inframe_insertion, initiator_codon_variant, missense_variant, 
 splice_acceptor_variant, splice_donor_variant, splice_region_variant, stop_gained, 
 stop_lost, coding_sequence_variant, transcript_ablation</li>

     <b><font color=blue>Untranslated Region (UTR) variants</font></b>

 No functional annotations were provided by the EVA (e.g., missense, nonsense, etc).
 These were computed using UCSC's Variant Annotation Integrator (Hinrichs, et al., 2016).
 Amino-acid substitutions for missense variants are based
 on RefSeq alignments of mRNA transcripts, which do not always match the amino acids
 predicted from translating the genomic sequence.  Therefore, in some instances, the
 variant and the genomic nucleotide and associated amino acid may be reversed.
 E.g., a Pro &gt; Arg change from the perspective of the mRNA would be Arg &gt; Pro from
 the perspective of the genomic sequence. Also, in bosTau9, galGal5, rheMac10,
-and danRer11 the mitochondrial sequence was removed or renamed to match UCSC.
