Data description




Working plan

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

  1. Recessive heritage
  2. Dominant heritage (father is affected).
  3. For this region: 1:1000-50000
  4. For this gene: BRD9
  5. For these genes at the same time: BRD9,CDK11A,RET
  6. Description of variants. How many SNVs and INDELs can you search?
  7. Variants with MAF (Minimum Allelic Frequency) < 0.1 for all populations in 1000 Genomes phase 3
  8. Variants with MAF (Minimum Allelic Frequency) < 0.01 for all populations in 1000 Genomes phase 3
  9. Variants with MAF (Minimum Allelic Frequency) < 0.001 for all populations in 1000 Genomes phase 3


B. Progressive selection

  1. We have several clues about our candidate variants. In addition of knowing the pattern of recessive heritage, 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 “synonymous variant”
    • How many variants do you have including both characteristics?
