[ensembl-dev] Data format in VEP - unspecified nucleotide symbol N

[Will McLaren]

Hello,

Yes, the VEP will recognise and deal with Ns appropriately; in coding
sequence they are treated as "unknown", so if you change a reference base
to N in coding sequence, the consequence will be given as the generic term
coding_sequence_variant.
