“…We identified a total of 6227 variants and filtered them based on the annotation, resulting in 1133 variants. Candidate SNVs were filtered using public databases, including OMIM, MalaCards, ClinVar, STRING, the Gene Ontology (GO) database, and relevant literature, to assess their potential relevance to PDA and cardiovascular development, 5,7,8 resulting in a final list of 32 potentially relevant variants (Figure 1). We used the nucleotide BLAST program from NCBI to compare the 32 potentially relevant SNVs with sequences from five reference species (M. fuscata, M. mulatta, M. fascicularis, Papio anubis, and Homo sapiens) to assess the conservation level across species and identify the potential functional consequences of these variants.…”
