ClinvarNonConstrainedVariant

Trial Use

This data class is at a trial use maturity level and may change in future releases. Maturity levels are described in the GKS Maturity Model.

A ClinVar variant that cannot be mapped to a specific VRS allele or location — haplotypes, genotypes, and other complex or ambiguously defined variants. These rely solely on the ClinVar variation ID and use the generalized Cat-VRS CategoricalVariant without VRS constraints.

JSON Schema: ClinvarNonConstrainedVariant

Some ClinvarNonConstrainedVariant attributes are inherited from CategoricalVariant, ClinvarCategoricalVariantProperties.

Information Model

Field Type Limits Description
id string 0..1 The 'logical' identifier of the Entity in the system of record, e.g. a UUID. This 'id' is unique within a given system, but may or may not be globally unique outside the system. It is used within a system to reference an object from another.
name string 0..1 A primary name for the entity.
description string 0..1 A free-text description of the Entity.
aliases string[] (unordered) 0..m Alternative name(s) for the Entity.
extensions Extension[] (unordered) 0..m ClinVar-specific metadata. See Variations — Extensions for the complete list of extension names, value types, and custom type definitions.
type string 0..1 MUST be "CategoricalVariant"
members Variation | iriReference[] (unordered) 0..m A non-exhaustive list of VRS Variations that satisfy the constraints of this categorical variant.
constraints Constraint[] (unordered) 0..m No VRS constraints — this variant type cannot be mapped to a specific VRS allele or location. The constraints array is empty.
mappings ConceptMapping[] (unordered) 0..m A list of mappings to concepts in terminologies or code systems. Each mapping should include a coding and a relation.
