Assessment of ability of AlphaMissense to identify variants affecting susceptibility to common disease
David Curtis
Abstract:An important issue pertinent to the analysis of sequence data to detect association between rare variants in a gene and a given phenotype is the ability to annotate nonsynonymous variants in terms of their likely importance as affecting protein function. While a number of software tools attempt to do this, AlphaMissense was recently released and was shown to have good performance using benchmarks based on variants causing severe disease and on functional assays. Here, we assess the performance of AlphaMissense… Show more
