Personalized medicine and endocrine disorders: the challenges of interpreting genetic variants

David Alessia , Ittisoponpisan SIrawit , Sternberg Michael JE

Introduction: Genetic projects, such as 100KGenomes, are identifying a vast amount of genetic variants that require interpretation. Several variants lack sufficient evidence to be classified as neutral or damaging. Such variants are annotated as ‘unclassified’ and interpretation of their biological effect is of paramount importance, but remains a major challenge. Variant predictors are widely used to prioritize variants for further studies...
