Toward reporting standards for the pathogenicity of variant combinations involved in multilocus/oligogenic diseases

Abstract excerpt

Although standards and guidelines for the interpretation of variants identified in genes that cause Mendelian disorders have been developed, this is not the case for more complex genetic models including variant combinations in multiple genes. During a large curation process conducted on 318 research articles presenting oligogenic variant combinations, we encountered several recurring issues concerning their...
