Hi Adam,

The SO term splice_donor_variant [1] as reported by the VEP covers this. Variants in the receiving 2bp region are defined as splice_acceptor_variant [2].

There's also a number of splicing predictors available as VEP plugins (e.g. [3]) which you may find useful.

Is there a way of getting VEP to identify whether a variant causes a 'canonical' splice site change (i.e. affects the first two nucleotides flanking an exon)?

Thank you,

Adam
