A relative reference to a DNA strand based on gene orientation. The strand that contains the open reading frame of the gene is the "sense" strand, and the opposite complementary strand is the "antisense" strand.

Reference identifier of reference sequence submitted to NCBI. It must match the type in the Sequence.type field. For example, the prefix, “NG ” “NG_” identifies reference sequence for genes, “NM ” “NM_” for messenger RNA transcripts, and “NP_” for amino acid sequences.

A Pointer to another Sequence entity as reference sequence.

A string like "ACGT". "ACGT".

Directionality of DNA sequence. Available values are "1" for An absolute reference to a strand. The Watson strand is the plus strand (5' to 3')/Watson/Sense/positive whose 5'-end is on the short arm of the chromosome, and "-1" for the minus strand(3' to 5')/Crick/Antisense/negative. Crick strand as the one whose 5'-end is on the long arm.

Start position of the window on the reference sequence. If the coordinate system is either 0-based or 1-based, then start position is inclusive.

End position of the window on the reference sequence. If the coordinate system is 0-based then end is is exclusive and does not include the last position. If the coordinate system is 1-base, then end is inclusive and includes the last position.

The definition of variant here originates from Sequence ontology ( variant_of ). This element can represent amino acid or nucleic sequence change(including insertion,deletion,SNP,etc.) It can represent some complex mutation or segment variation with the assist of CIGAR string.

Start position of the variant on the reference sequence.If the coordinate system is either 0-based or 1-based, then start position is inclusive.

End position of the variant on the reference sequence.If the coordinate system is 0-based then end is is exclusive and does not include the last position. If the coordinate system is 1-base, then end is inclusive and includes the last position.

An allele is one of a set of coexisting sequence variants of a gene ( SO:0001023 ). Nucleotide(s)/amino acids from start position of sequence to stop position of sequence on the positive (+) strand of the observed sequence. When the sequence type is DNA, it should be the sequence on the positive (+) strand. This will lay in the range between variant.start and variant.end.

Extended CIGAR string for aligning the sequence with reference bases. See detailed documentation here .

A pointer to an Observation containing variant information.

Sequence that was observed. It is the result marked by referenceSeq along with variant records on referenceSeq. This shall starts from referenceSeq.windowStart and end by referenceSeq.windowEnd.

An experimental feature attribute that defines the quality of the feature in a quantitative way, such as a phred quality score ( SO:0001686 ).

INDEL / SNP / Undefined variant.

Gold standard sequence used for comparing against.

Start position of the sequence. If the coordinate system is either 0-based or 1-based, then start position is inclusive.

End position of the sequence.If the coordinate system is 0-based then end is is exclusive and does not include the last position. If the coordinate system is 1-base, then end is inclusive and includes the last position.

The score of an experimentally derived feature such as a p-value ( SO:0001685 ).

Which method is used to get sequence quality.

True positives, from the perspective of the truth data, i.e. the number of sites in the Truth Call Set for which there are paths through the Query Call Set that are consistent with all of the alleles at this site, and for which there is an accurate genotype call for the event.

True positives, from the perspective of the query data, i.e. the number of sites in the Query Call Set for which there are paths through the Truth Call Set that are consistent with all of the alleles at this site, and for which there is an accurate genotype call for the event.

False negatives, i.e. the number of sites in the Truth Call Set for which there is no path through the Query Call Set that is consistent with all of the alleles at this site, or sites for which there is an inaccurate genotype call for the event. Sites with correct variant but incorrect genotype are counted here.

False positives, i.e. the number of sites in the Query Call Set for which there is no path through the Truth Call Set that is consistent with this site. Sites with correct variant but incorrect genotype are counted here.

The number of false positives where the non-REF alleles in the Truth and Query Call Sets match (i.e. cases where the truth is 1/1 and the query is 0/1 or similar).
