Open-source tools and data to help anyone determine the significance of a genetic variant.
Genomic medicine wants a yes/no answer to a nuanced question. At VariantBrowser.org we present a data-driven estimate of disease penetrance for KCNQ1, KCNH2, SCN5A and RYR2, with the carrier counts, functional data and predictors behind it in searchable tables.
Heuristically, what a variant’s 3D location, in vitro function and in silico predictors tell you is roughly equivalent to phenotyping 10–20 heterozygotes. Methods: PLOS Genetics 2020, Circ Genom Precis Med 2021, Genetics in Medicine 2023, Circ Genom Precis Med 2026.
