Is there anywhere in the mutation data where there is a column showing the variant allele frequency (VAF) for a given mutation in a given cell line?

Hi,

Is the column “AF” what you are looking for? Also here’s the [documentation](https://storage.googleapis.com/shared-portal-files/Tools/23Q4_Mutation_Pipeline_Documentation.pdf) of our pipeline for reference.
