Old notation for variation

[seqtrix1]

Hi, all!

I am confused with the following notations for SNPs:
E-selectin +G98T, +A561C
IL-10 gene promoter -592A
TNF-alpha promoter -857CC
TIM3 GT + TT
IL-1ß-2023 C*
TNF-alpha C857T
MBL codon 52 'CC' and 'CT'
GSTP1 val/val
CXCL10 G-201A
IL-18 promoter -607A/A

These are probably old notations for SNPs used without official definition.
I can't figure out how I can locate those variations in the reference sequence.

That syntax looks a bit strange!

E-selectin +G98T, +A561C

Probably means a G was changed to a T at position 98 (nucleotide), and an A=>C at position 561 in the E-selectin gene. The problem is, you need to know what build and version of the annotation was used!

IL-10 gene promoter -592A
Negative coordinate relative to start of CDS makes some sense, as it is in a promoter.

The rest just get more bizarre!
