Settling the score: variant prioritization and Mendelian disease

For clinical cases of Mendelian disease that lack a genetic diagnosis, genome and exome sequencing are increasingly used for seeking the genetic cause. This Review discusses the strategies and computational tools for prioritizing the many genetic variants identified in each genome into those that are most likely to be causal for disease. The authors discuss how diverse types of biochemical, evolutionary, pedigree and clinical-phenotype information are used, and they highlight common pitfalls to be aware of for responsible variant prioritization.
