Abstract excerpt
The analysis of variants generated by exome sequencing (ES) of families with rare Mendelian diseases is a time-consuming, manual process that represents one barrier to applying the technology routinely. To address this issue, we have developed a software tool, VAR-MD (http://research.nhgri.nih.gov/software/var-md/), for analyzing the DNA sequence variants produced by human ES. VAR-MD generates a ranked list of...
