RegSNPs-intron: a computational framework for predicting pathogenic impact of intronic single nucleotide variants

Abstract Single nucleotide variants (SNVs) in intronic regions have yet to be systematically investigated for their disease-causing potential. Using known pathogenic and neutral intronic SNVs (iSNVs) as training data, we develop the RegSNPs-intron algorithm based on a random forest classifier that i...
