Detailed Descriptions for the elements in the Sequence resource.

Sequence
Definition

Variation and Sequence data.

Control1..1
Summarytrue
Sequence.type
Definition

Amino acid / cDNA transcript / RNA variation.

Control1..1
BindingsequenceType: Type if a sequence -- DNA, RNA, or amino acid sequence (Example)
Typecode
Summarytrue
Sequence.variationID
Definition

Identifier for variant. If a germline variant, ClinVar or dbSNP identifier should be used. If a somatic variant, COSMIC identifier should be used, unless in ClinVar then either maybe used. Need to provide the code system used (ClinVar, dbSNP, COSMIC).

Control0..*
BindingdbSNP: Variant ID (Example)
TypeCodeableConcept
Summarytrue
Sequence.referenceSeq
Definition

Reference identifier for cDNA transcript/protein, with version, from NCBI's RefSeq or ENSEMBL. This reference sequence identifier must match the type in the Sequence.type field.

Summarytrue
Sequence.coordinate
Definition

The coordinate of the variant.

Control0..*
Summarytrue
Sequence.coordinate.chromosome
Definition

The chromosome containing the genetic finding. The value set will be 1-22, X, Y when the species is human without chromosome abnormality. Otherwise, NCBI-Gene code system should be used.

Control0..1
TypeCodeableConcept
Summarytrue
Sequence.coordinate.start
Definition

Inclusive 0-based nucleotide position for start of genomic finding on the positive (+) genomics strand.

Control0..1
Typeinteger

Sequence.coordinate.genomeBuild
Definition

The Genome Build used for reference, following GRCh build versions e.g. 'GRCh 37'. Version number must be included if a versioned release of a primary build was used.

Control0..1
TypeCodeableConcept
Summarytrue
Sequence.species
Definition

The organism from which sample of the sequence was extracted. Supporting tests of human, viruses, and bacteria.

Control0..1
TypeCodeableConcept
Summarytrue
Sequence.observedAllele
Definition

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.

Control0..1
Typestring
Summarytrue
Sequence.referenceAllele
Definition

Summarytrue
Sequence.quality
Definition

Quality for sequence quality vary by platform reflecting differences in sequencing chemistry and digital processing.

Control0..*
Summarytrue
Sequence.quality.start
Definition

TypeQuantity
Summarytrue
Sequence.quality.platform
Definition

Platform.

Control0..1
TypeCodeableConcept
Summarytrue
Sequence.allelicState
Definition

The level of occurrence of a single DNA Sequence Variation within a set of chromosomes. Heterozygous indicates the DNA Sequence Variation is only present in one of the two genes contained in homologous chromosomes. Homozygous indicates the DNA Sequence Variation is present in both genes contained in homologous chromosomes. Hemizygous indicates the DNA Sequence Variation exists in the only single copy of a gene in a non- homologous chromosome (the male X and Y chromosome are non-homologous). Hemiplasmic indicates that the DNA Sequence Variation is present in some but not all of the copies of mitochondrial DNA. Homoplasmic indicates that the DNA Sequence Variation is present in all of the copies of mitochondrial DNA.
