Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Multiplexed Assays of Variant Effects (MAVEs) can test all possible single variants in a gene of interest. The resulting saturation-style functional data may help resolve variant classification disparities between populations, especially for Variants of Uncertain Significance (VUS). METHODS: We analyzed clinical significance classifications in 213,663 individuals of European-like genetic ancestry...
