    """
    Determine whether there is a difference between the ref and alt
    alleles for TF binding. Requires samtools in your path.
    
    Parameters
    ----------
    position : str
        Zero based genomic coordinates of the reference allele of the form
        chrom:start-end (chr5:100-101 for a SNV for instance). The value end -
        start should equal the length of the ref allele.

    ref : str
        Reference allele. This should match the reference sequence at "position"
        in genome_fasta.

    alt : str
        Alternate allele.

    genome_fasta : str
        Path to genome fasta file. This file should be indexed.
    
    matrices : dict
        Dict whose keys are motif names and whose values are pandas data frames 
        or numpy arrays containing PWMs with columns ACGT.

    Returns
    -------
    out : pandas.DataFrame
        Pandas data frame with motifs whose best matches that overlapped the
        variant differed between the reference and alternate sequences. A score
        of zero and a strand of '' indicates that there was not a match for the
        motif on the given allele.
