HI Tiago,

I'm not aware of a Biopython VCF parser, but pysam seems to have one
(haven't used it though). Try
>>> from pysam import cvcf

You also might want to check an implementation which was posted on
seqanswers: http://seqanswers.com/forums/archive/index.php/t-9266.html

PS:
For the sake of completeness: your question was asked before here (no
replies). See http://www.biopython.org/pipermail/biopython/2011-March/007131.html
