This project was spun out of the Australian Genomics Shariant project, which involves resolving legacy HGVS from many different labs.
We feel there is a need to obtain JSON representation of historical transcript versions for use in resolving HGVS, and this project can fill the gap.
But long term - we'd like to make it obsolete! This would require:
- Perhaps move cdot into biocommons if they'll have us, or client code into HGVS projects
- Propose a GA4GH Transcript JSON format
- Have RefSeq/Ensembl provide APIs for historical transcript versions (ideally in GA4GH standard above)
We'll try to do the above, and as things change, we can be the glue that ties it together.
