Calling SNPs across different genome versions

Question

[Schmendrick]

I'm new to working on genomic level data so was hoping someone could help with this. Sorry if it's a daft question!

I have a list of SNPs that I want to call on the cat genome version 8_0. However, the reference locations of these are from a former genome version which is no longer available. The latest version is longer and therefore, I would assume, the SNP locations I have would not output the correct calls with v8_0. Is there any way round this?

Cheers

You can use UCSC liftover to convert coordinates between genome builds.
