Abstract excerpt
New technologies allow rapid discovery of novel sequence variants among which those involving complex structural rearrangements. The description of such complex variants challenges the existing standard sequence variation nomenclature of the Human Genome Variation Society (HGVS, http://www.hgvs.org/mutnomen), because this mainly focuses on simple variants. Here, we suggest several extensions of the HGVS...
