[ensembl-dev] VEP RSid mergers

[Duarte Molha]

Dear Developers

I have a variant that I annotated using VEP at position
2_3504687_A/G Genotype 0/1

when annotating this I get 2 RS ids on the Existing_variation field :

rs9950,rs17350005

in dbSNP , the latter has been merged back into the former, but in ENSEMBL
there is no such indication.

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/SNP/snp_ref.cgi?rs=rs17350005

http://www.ensembl.org/Homo_sapiens/Variation/Summary?db=core;r=2:3504187-3505187;v=rs17350005;vdb=variation;vf=9931714

Also the synonyms field is empty  and I would expect, it they are in fact
the same variation, then the rs9950 should be a  synonym for rs17350005,
correct?

Is there a flag  could use so that I could disregard the latter RSid (maybe
using a plugin) ?

Best regards

Duarte
