VCF formats for mRatBN7.2

Hi All,

I am trying to use RnBeadsAnnotationCreator and it requires a link to a VCF file, the VCF file available at https://ftp.ebi.ac.uk/pub/databases/eva/rs_releases/release_3/by_species/rattus_norvegicus/mRatBN7.2/ is VCF v4.2

this software requires VCFv4.0

I have not been able to find a way to convert between these versions or a version of these data in that format.

Does anyone know how i can convert from v4.2 to v4.0 or a place i can link to that has the correct version?

There is little differences between 4.2 and 4.0 , you can always try to fool your software by only changing the header.

 sed 's/^##fileformat=VCFv4.2/##fileformat=VCFv4.0/' in.vcf > out.vcf
