NCBI has a useful tool that collect the information of all transcripts ID versions and allows you to see differences. Here one example

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nuccore/NM_002734?report=girevhist

I am interested to see if there are differences in the sequence between transcript versions. The website provides a BLAST analysis such as the one I provided below.

In the sequence comparison, I can see that sometimes the base in the subject is capital while in the opposite is lowercase. This is not considered a mismatch by BLAST.

My question is what does this mean???

I show an example here

and the almost complete BLAST result here:
