A sub-set of genes, which contained predicted damaging variants (by Polyphen v2) were analyzed using Functional Disease Ontology Annotations (FunDO). The significance of each disease association is evaluated by Fisher's exact test, and diseases that showed Bonferroni corrected p-value <0.05 are considered as significant. Numbers in parenthesis indicates the number of genes associated with disease.
