We have several candidate profiles of mutations because it is clear the kind of mutation we are searching but sometimes we do not have a specific clues.
How many variants do you detect for each scenario?
A. Individual filters
Recessive inheritance
Dominant inheritance (father is affected).
For these regions: 1:3000-10000000,20:1000-200000000
Variants with MAF (Minimum Allelic Frequency) < 0.001 for ALL populations in 1000 Genomes phase 3
Variants with MAF (Minimum Allelic Frequency) < 0.001 for European population (EUR) in 1000 Genomes phase 3
Variants with two preview conditions realted to MAFs at the same time
B. Progressive selection
We have several clues about our candidate variants. In addition of knowing the pattern of recessive inheritance , we search variants with MAF < 0.1 (for ALL populations in 1000 Genomes phase 3) because it is a rare disease. Consequence type must be “missense variant” (moderate).
How many variants do you have including both characteristics?
