LGD likely gene disrupting, including frameshift, stop gain, and variants at canonical splice site, D-mis predicted deleterious missense variants.

Exp_Rate and Obs_Rate are respectively the expected and observed fraction of genes with a specific type of de novo mutation. Exp_Num and Obs_Num are the expected and observed number of genes with a specific type of de novo mutation, respectively. Constrained genes are defined by ExAC_pLI > 0.5.
