Insights for variant clinical interpretation based on a benchmark of 65 variant effect predictors.

Abstract excerpt

Single amino acid substitutions in protein sequences are generally harmless, but a certain number of these changes can lead to disease. Accurately predicting the effect of genetic variants is crucial for clinicians as it accelerates the diagnosis of patients with missense variants associated with health problems. Many computational tools have been developed to predict the pathogenicity of genetic variants with...
