dbVar-GL — HL7 International OID Registry
dbVar is NCBI's database of genomic structural variations (including copy number variants) that are larger than 50 contiguous base pairs. It is the complement of dbSNP, which only contains variants occurring in 50 or fewer contiguous base pairs. It contains insertions, deletions, duplications, inversions, multinucleotide substitutions, mobile element insertions, translocations, and complex chromosomal rearrangements. Germline and Somatic variants are presented in separate files. Accordingly we have divided the coding system for dbVar the same way. This coding system represents the Germ line DbVar variants. The records it carries have IDs with prefixes of RSV , RSSV , ESV and ESSV. Those beginning with E represent submission from the European Bioinformatics Institute (EBI) those beginning with R were submitted through NCBI. In this case we include submitted records (ESSV or RSSV) and the summary records (RSV, ESV) that identify many similar submitted records in the one file.
