Abstract excerpt
Accurate prediction of variant functional impact is crucial for understanding human diseases, particularly for cancer-related genes such as TP53. Advances in high-throughput mutational assays have enhanced variant effect prediction (VEP), but missense classification remains challenging due to the limitations of broad, non-gene-specific models. Here we present CaVepP53, a TP53-specific predictor fine-tuned on...
