X-cap improves pathogenicity prediction of stopgain variants

HIGHLIGHTS

  • who: Ruchir Rastogi from the (UNIVERSITY) have published the article: X-CAP improves pathogenicity prediction of stopgain variants, in the Journal: (JOURNAL)
  • what: The authors evaluate X-CAP at the high sensitivity required in clinical settings and show that X-CAP considerably outperforms existing methods. The authors show that X-CAP boasts superior performance when evaluated on the aforementioned datasets, as well as on patient exomes. The authors propose a decision rule that achieves 95% sensitivity (recall, true positive rate).
  • how: For pathogenic variants with unknown zygosity the authors employed the following heuristic . . .
