Rare nonsynonymous variants in genes associated with inherited disease. 1 - RefSeq reference allele in the human genome reference sequence (RefSeq), build 36. 2 - Disease associated with inherited mutations in the gene evaluated. 3 - Mutation databases evaluated for presence of the found variant in multiple mutation databases, including UniProt protein variant database, Human Genome Mutation Database curated mutation database, Locus-Specific Mutation Databases (curated by the Human Genome Variation Society), Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man, and clinical testing laboratory databases together with associated links. 4 - Functional prediction; Prediction of functional effect of mutation, derived from substitution effect prediction algorithms, Polymorphism Phenotyping (PolyPhen) and Sorting Intolerant from Tolerant (SIFT); published in vitro experimental evidence,; and evaluation of typical mutational mechanism in other disease gene associated mutations.
