Notes

aka c.4587dupG (p.Lys1530Glufs) and also c.4587_4588insA; this latter term is equivalent to c.4593dupA (p.Val1532Serfs), which is rs397507732. These "insA" variants are the same but (until merged in dbSNP perhaps) come about from whether the insertion is considered to occur at the beginning or end of a run of A's. 23andMe name: i5010511
