Using variant databases for variant prioritization and to detect erroneous genotype-phenotype associations

Using variant databases for variant prioritization and to detect erroneous genotype-phenotype associations

Abstract Background In the search for novel causal mutations, public and/or private variant databases are nearly always used to facilitate the search as they result in a massive reduction of putative variants in one step. Practically, variant filtering is often done by either using all variants from...
