2021-03-24
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Purpose</h4> Genetic penetrance is the probability of a phenotype manifesting if one harbours a specific pathogenic variant. For most Mendelian genes, penetrance is incomplete and may be age-dependent. Accurate penetrance estimates are important in many biomedical fields including genetic counselling, disease research, and for gene therapy. The main methods for its estimation are limited in situations where la...
