UK Biobank variant page URLs have moved from pheweb.sph.umich.edu/SAIGE-UKB to pheweb.org/UKB-TOPMed.

Changes

  • Updated createBioBankURL in Variant.tsx to use new URL format
  • Updated test expectations to match
// Before
const url = `http://pheweb.sph.umich.edu/SAIGE-UKB/variant/${chr}-${pos}-${ref}-${alt}`

// After  
const url = `https://pheweb.org/UKB-TOPMed/variant/${chr}-${pos}-${ref}-${alt}`

Variant format remains {chr}-{pos}-{ref}-{alt}.
