We should review how we use the variants from VariantLookup to mask bases in the design sequence. I think we should probably change masking to do something like:

  • SNPs should mask just the SNP base
  • MNPs (with len(ref) == len(alt)) should mask all the changed bases
  • Deletions should mask all deleted sequence (possibly flanking bases too??)
  • Insertions should mask the bases either side of the insertion site
  • Anything else we probably want to think about masking fairly aggressively
