What is "mutalyzer"

Mutalyzer is a web-based software tool which was primarily developed to check the description of sequence variants identified in a gene during genetic testing. Mutalyzer applies the rules of the standard human sequence variant nomenclature and can correct descriptions accordingly. Apart from the sequence variant description, Mutalyzer requires a DNA sequence record containing the transcript and protein feature annotation as a reference. Mutalyzer 2 accepts GenBank and Locus Reference Genomic (LRG) records. The annotation is also used to apply the correct codon translation tables and generate DNA and protein variant descriptions for any organism. The Mutalyzer server supports programmatic access via a SOAP Web service described in the Web Services Description Language (WSDL) and an HTTP/ RPC+ JSON web service.
