COSMIC Non Coding Variants Normal VCF
-------------------------------------
 VCF file of all coding variants ( normalized ) in the current release. The file has the variants 5' shifted as per the VCF standard, and the info part contains the 3' shifted syntaxes for cds and genome, along with the unshifted variants in the OLD_VARIANT field [ Cosmic_NonCodingVariants_Normal_v103_GRCh38.vcf.gz ]
