Click the + Add VEP database button under the VEP database section on the library file management page.
If you are using an species supported by Partek (i.e., human, mouse, rat), a VEP database from ENSEMBL will be available for automatic download. Select the Download database radio button and click Create (Figure 1).
If you are working with a custom assembly, choose the Import database radio button and click Create (Figure 2). A VEP database can be added from the Partek Flow Server or a URL download link. The behavior of each option is similar to when importing a reference sequence (see Adding a Reference Sequence). ENSEMBL maintains an extensive list of VEP databases for various species. We recommend going to ENSEMBL's ftp download site and finding the VEP database download link for your species of interest.
One VEP database is allowed per genome assembly. Once a VEP is successfully imported, the + Add VEP database button will not be shown (Figure 3).
