Fixes Ensembl/ensembl-vep#1480: assigning
feature_truncation/elongation
to SV deletions/insertions in introns is not ideal given that these consequences will be highlighted asHIGH
impact even without any obvious functional consequences.This bug fix simply checks if the SV is located within the cDNA before assigning the consequence.
Testing
Test VEP with the following variants:
bnd1
in the example below) should returnfeature_truncation/elongation
ins/del_in_exon
below) should returnfeature_truncation/elongation
ins/del_in_intron
below) should NOT returnfeature_truncation/elongation
The following CNVs should still return
feature_truncation/elongation
consequences for most cases, except a few cases where the affected regions are only introns (see Ensembl/ensembl-vep#1478 to use these IDs with VEP):
