CNVscore calculates pathogenicity scores for copy number variants together with uncertainty estimates accounting for learning biases in reference Mendelian disorder datasets
Abstract:Copy number variants (CNVs) are a major cause of rare pediatric diseases with a broad spectrum of phenotypes. Genetic diagnosis based on comparative genomic hybridization tests typically identifies ~8-10% of patients as having CNVs of unknown significance, revealing the current limits of clinical interpretation. The adoption of whole-genome sequencing (WGS) as a first-line genetic test has significantly increased the load of CNVs identified in single genomes. Alongside short- and long-read sequencing technolog… Show more
