According to the dbSNP entry for rs2476601, the variant is at position 114377568 of chromosome 1, which is an A in both hg19 and GRCh37.p13. But some of the HGVS names for the SNP are "NG_011432.1:g.41808C>T" and "NM_012411.4:c.1693C>T". Why is the reference a C in these transcripts, if they refer to the same variant?
Secondary question: why is "NP_036543.4:p.Arg565=" listed, but "NP_036543.4:p.Arg565Trp" not?
Thanks for looking!

Although the base A is present in the reference genome (hg19) at this location (114377568), A is the minor allele for this position. Check the following link - illustrating the variation of this position (in GRCh37) from the 1000 genomes data. The major allele is G, and hence you see C as the reference in most transcripts.
For the second question, I think this is an issue (or intended truncation) with the NCBI website. In the summary view , you can view the full list of HGVS names for a given variation (see link below). However, some HGVS names are truncated in the detailed view.
