[ensembl-dev] VEP command line error using dbNSFP on GRCH37

Fri Feb 26 10:19:16 GMT 2016

We at Ensembl do not produce the dbNSFP database, just a plugin to access
it.

The dbNSFP file does actually contain position mappings to GRCh37, but
using this as the index would generate many artefacts in the results due to
differences in genome and transcript structure. In theory it would be
possible to modify the plugin to do this, but the major task would be
re-ordering and re-indexing the data files (tabix requires that the file be
sorted by the position column that it will index).
