Table 1: Outlining truth sets for cliPE experiments.
For most cliPE experiments, the following truth sets are critical to validate the MAVE. For some genes which lack a portion of the truth set, such as PTEN or CHEK2 which have a limited number of BLB variants listed in ClinVar, it is important to consider how the data analysis portion of the workflow may be impacted.
| Assay validation truth set | Clinical truth set | |
|---|---|---|
| Negative control | Synonymous and missense variants present in general population database such as gnomAD | Missense variants classified as benign or likely benign in ClinVar |
| Positive control | Premature truncation variants in the targeted regions of the gene | Missense variants classified as pathogenic or likely pathogenic in ClinVar |
