Introduction

Queries the Ensembl REST API to convert an amino acid change to a SNP. I did not do a lot of checking (e.g. the script could return synonymous variants if they overlap with the protein position). Use at your own risk

To use the script, clone the repository and run it using Python 3. I only use modules from the standard library so this should not be a problem.

Running the script with --help should provide enough information to use it. Here is an example:

$ python3 aa2snp.py -g ENSP00000369497 -v F101L
id	chromosome	position	strand	alleles	amino_changes
