Note. EU fqcy refers to the frequency of the variants in the European population assessed in the ExAC; Mtp refers to Golgi 4-transmembrane spanning transporter.

WES = whole exome sequencing. VPS10p = vacuolar sorting protein 10 p; NPs = neuropeptides; PVNS = pigmented villonodular synovitis; FTD = fronto-temporal dementia; ExAC = Exome Aggregation Consortium.

a

Conservation outcomes across different species were taken from the homologene NCBI database (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/homologene).

b

Prediction of pathogenicity was determined by the following computational programs (See methods): MutPred, SNPs&Go, Mutation Taster, and SIFT.

c

Human Brain Expression data were acquired from the Human protein atlas (http://www.proteinatlas.org/).
