Introduction

The Variant Call Format (VCF) is a flexible file format specification that allows us to represent many different variant types ranging from SNPs, indels to copy number variations. However, variant representation in VCF is non-unique for variants that have explicitly expressed reference and alternate sequences.

On this wiki page, we describe a a variant classification system for VCF entries that is invariant to normalization except for the case of MNPs.

Definitions

The definition of a variant is based on the definition of each allele with respect to the reference sequence. We consider 5 major types loosely decribed as follows.

1. SNP
The reference and alternate sequences are of length 1 and the base nucleotide is different from one another.
2. MNP
The reference and alternate sequences are of the same length and have to be greater than 1 and all nucleotides in the sequences differ from one another.
OR
All reference and alternate sequences have the same length (this is applicable to all alleles).
3. INDEL
The reference and alternate sequences are not of the same length.
4. CLUMPED
A clumping of nearby SNPs, MNPs or Indels.
5. SV
The alternate sequence is represented by an angled bracket tag.

Classification Procedure

  1. Trim each allele with respect to the reference sequence individually
  2. Inspect length, defined as length of alternate allele minus length of reference allele.
    1. if length = 0
      1. if length(ref) = 1 and nucleotides differ, classify as SNP (count ts and tv too)
      2. if length(ref) > 1
        1. if all nucleotides differ, classify as MNP (count ts and tv too)
        2. if not all nucleotides differ, classify as CLUMPED (count ts and tv too)
    2. if length 0, classify as INDEL
      1. if shorter allele is of length 1
        1. if shorter allele does not match either of the end nucleotides of the longer allele, add SNP classification
      2. if shorter allele length > 1
        1. compare the shorter allele sequence with the subsequence in the 5' end of the longer allele (count ts and tv too)
          1. if all nucleotides differ, add MNP classification
          2. if not all nucleotides differ, add CLUMPED classification
  3. Variant classification is the union of the classifications of each allele present in the variant.
  4. If all alleles are the same length, add MNP classification.

Examples

We present the following examples to explain the classification described.

Legend for examples

   <variant classification>

   REF <reference sequence>      
   ALT <alternative sequence 1>      #<allele classification>, <contribution to transition, transversion, insertion or deletion count>   
   ALT <alternative sequence 2>      #<allele classification>, <contribution to transition, transversion, insertion or deletion count>

Simple Biallelic Examples

   SNP

   REF  A       
   ALT  G     #SNP, 1 ts  

   MNP

   REF  AT     
   ALT  GC    #MNP, 2 ts

   INDEL

   REF  AT      
   ALT  A     #INDEL, 1 del

   INDEL

   REF  AT      
   ALT  T     #INDEL, 1 del
              #Note that although the padding base differs - A vs T, this is actually a simple indel because it is simply a deletion of a A base.  
              #If you right align this instead of left aligning, then the padding will be T on both the reference and alternative alleles.
              #Simple Indel classification should be invariant whether it is left or right aligned.

   SV

   REF  A    
   ALT <DEL>  #SV

Complex Biallelic Examples

   SNP|INDEL

   REF  AT           
   ALT  G           #SNP, INDEL, 1 ts
                    #Note that it is ambiguous as to which pairing should be a SNP, as such, the transition or transversion contribution is actually
                    #not defined.  In this case, assuming it is a A/G SNP, we get a transition, but we may also consider this as a T/G SNP which
                    #is a transversion.  In such ambiguous cases, we simply consider the aligned bases after left alignment to get the transition
                    #and transversion contribution.  But please be very clear that this is an ambiguous case.  It is better to consider this simply
                    #as a complex variant.

Representing it as a single complex variant enforces that both "indel" and "SNP" are always together. Representing it as 2 separate variants allows both alleles to segregate independently.
