Molecular Variation

VRS currently covers many classes of variation that are defined on a contiguous molecule such as single nucleotide variants (SNVs), multi-nucleotide variants (MNVs), indels, repeats, haplotypes, breakpoints, and sequence rearrangements that form derivative molecules.

Collectively, these types of variation are called molecular variation.

Note

This data class is at a trial use maturity level and may change in future releases. Maturity levels are described in the GKS Maturity Model.
