Subject: [Tutor] vcf_files and strings
Hi,
I'm a beginner at Python and would really appreciate some help in how to extract information from a vcf file.
The attached file consists of a lot of information on mutations, this one though is just 2 rows and 10 columns (the real one has a lot more rows).
I want to extract the mRNA ID only if the mutation is missense. These two rows (mutations) that I have attached happens to be missense but how do I say that I'm not interested in the mutations that's not missense (they might be e.g. synonymous). Also, how do I say that if a mutation starts with a # symbol I don't want to include it (sometimes the chr starts with a hash).
vcf file: 2 rows, 10 columns.
col 0 col 1 col 2 col 3 col 4 col5 col6 col7 col8 col9
chromosome position . Reference ALT position . some statistics and the ID:s not important not important
The important column is 7 where the ID is, i.e. refseq.functionalClass=missense. It's a missense mutation, so then I want to extract refseq.name=NM_003137492, or I want to extract only the ID, which in this case is NM_003137492.
Then I want to do exactly the same thing for all the other mutations, but only for the missense mutations not the other ones. How do I accomplish that? Where do I start?
Best,
Anna
