Edit help text to make clear when some codons are excluded by observedMutations
Edit help to make clear the behavior in the description below (from Jason)
...a mutation that introduces a stop codon, which observedMutations
considers neither a replacement nor silent mutation. For example:
SEQUNCE_IMGT> AAA
GERMLINE_IMGT> TCA
The stop is introduced when the second A is considered as a mutation, because mutations are counted in the germline context individually. So TAA vs TCA and ACA vs TCA are both considered, with the TAA causing the exclusion of the codon.
Also, ... The codon would be excluded if the germline codon is ambiguous, .... For example: SEQUNCE_IMGT> TGG GERMLINE_IMGT> G.G So, long story short, there are few different cases where codons are excluded from the mutation counts due to stop codons or being unable to resolve replacement vs silent. Those cases are what's leading to the differences between nucleotide mismatches and mutation counts.

Commit 3d2ce16
added an additional line of help to
observedMutations
, as Steven suggested (", including criteria for which sequence differences are included in the mutation counts and which are not.")expanded @details for
calcObservedMutations
, elaborating on what "independently in the germline context" means, as well as adding more examples for where certain mutations are excluded.
