The mutational constraint spectrum quantified from variation in 141,456 humans

2019-01-28

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Summary</h4> Genetic variants that inactivate protein-coding genes are a powerful source of information about the phenotypic consequences of gene disruption: genes critical for an organism’s function will be depleted for such variants in natural populations, while non-essential genes will tolerate their accumulation. However, predicted loss-of-function (pLoF) variants are enriched for annotation errors, and t...
