This is especially relevant when using the RefSeq cache, see documentation for more details. Use this flag to force VEP to replace the provided reference allele with sequence derived from the overlapped transcript. Enables -use_transcript_ref add -use_given_ref to override this behaviour.īy default VEP uses the reference allele provided in the input file to calculate consequences for the provided alternate allele(s). Used to correct RefSeq transcript models. NotĪDVANCED Use BAM file of sequence alignments to correct transcript models not derived from reference genome sequence. Requires a FASTA file of genomic sequence. Use GTF transcript annotations in as an annotation source. Use GFF transcript annotations in as an annotation source. Supplying the -custom flag multiple times. Not used byĪdd custom annotation to the output. Multiple plugins can be used by supplying the Plugins subdirectory of the VEP cache directory (defaults to Plugin modules should be installed in the Higher to use more memory with a faster run time. Lower to use less memory at the expense of longer run time, and Variants that are read in to memory simultaneously. Sets the internal buffer size, corresponding to the number of Show source version information for selected cache and quit VEP/Ensembl version may be 88 and the Ensembl Genomes version 35. Version numbers do not match Ensembl versions. This should be used with Ensembl Genomes caches since their Use a different cache version than the assumed default (the VEP Add -refseq or -merged to use the refseq or merged cache, (if installed).
