PHACTboost: A Phylogeny-aware Boosting Algorithm to Compute the Pathogenicity of Missense Mutations

2024-02-01

Abstract excerpt

Most algorithms that are used to predict the effects of variants rely on evolutionary conservation. However, a majority of such techniques compute evolutionary conservation by solely using the alignment of multiple sequences while overlooking the evolutionary context of substitution events. We had introduced PHACT, a scoring-based pathogenicity predictor for missense mutations that can leverage phylogenetic trees,...
