 Downstream

=head1 SYNOPSIS

 mv Downstream.pm ~/.vep/Plugins
 ./vep -i variations.vcf --plugin Downstream

=head1 DESCRIPTION

 This is a plugin for the Ensembl Variant Effect Predictor (VEP) that
 predicts the downstream effects of a frameshift variant on the protein
 sequence of a transcript. It provides the predicted downstream protein
 sequence (including any amino acids overlapped by the variant itself),
 and the change in length relative to the reference protein.
 
 Note that changes in splicing are not predicted - only the existing
 translateable (i.e. spliced) sequence is used as a source of
 translation. Any variants with a splice site consequence type are
 ignored.
