These variants are classified by EVA into one of the following sequence ontology terms:
- substitution —
A single nucleotide in the reference is replaced by another, alternate allele.
- deletion —
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.
+ may be represented as Ref = GA and Alt = G.
- insertion —
One or more nucleotides are inserted. 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 an insertion of a T may
be represented as Ref = G and Alt = GT.
- delins —
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.
- multipleNucleotideVariant —
More than one nucleotide is substituted by an equal number of different
nucleotides, e.g., Ref = AA, Alt = GC.
- sequence alteration —
A parent term meant to signify a deviation from another sequence. Can be
assigned to variants that have not been characterized yet.
The variants have also been annotated with our Variant
Annotation Integrator tool with functional classes such as synonymous variant,
missense variant, stop gained, etc. For additional details on the track colors,
as well as the filters and metadata on each variant, see the
track description page page.

May 21, 2025 Varaico variants track available for human (hg38 & hg19)
We are happy to announce the release of the Varaico variants track for human assemblies
hg38/GRCh38 and
hg19/GRCh37. Varaico stands for
"Variation Research Advancing Insight in Complex
Organisms". Varaico was created using literature mining, similar to AVADA.
Varaico variants are generated by an automated process that extracts purely factual information
about genes from scientific papers (by matching strings against gene names) and HGVS variant
