Import module: help text and link to variantvalidator.org
Suggestions for the VCF/variant import module:
- In the "Single variant" tab, add an explanatory text (including the link) "Use VariantValidator for converting HGVS cDNA variant names to valid VCF format".
- As the output of variantvalidator.org is given in the format chromosome-position-REF-ALT (e.g. 17-48275363-C-A), it would also be useful to provide an option in the "Single variant" tab to paste this format directly and let ella parse the input. E.g. a separate field titled "VariantValidator/gnomAD format"
- Add a cautionary note on all tabs: "NB: VCF files and variants must use GRCh37/hg19 genomic forward strand coordinates and alleles."
