    It is really annoying - those BC sequences that sit between WA1 and WA2 cluster are almost certainly artefacts (the second defining mutation is in a primer site and they are calling it for the primer). Happens with some of the other BCones in the WA2 cluster too.

    But the folk in the BCCDC won't do anything about it until they have checked it with sanger sequencing
