  1. *The American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG)/Association for Molecular Pathology (AMP) criteria: #1 Null variant (nonsense, frameshift, canonical ± 1 or 2 splice sites, initiation codon, single or multiexon deletion) in a gene where LOF is a known mechanism of disease—#2 Absent from controls (or at extremely low frequency if recessive) in Exome Sequencing Project, 1000 Genomes Project, or Exome Aggregation Consortium—#3 Multiple lines of computational evidence support a deleterious effect on the gene or gene product (conservation, evolutionary, splicing impact, etc.)—#4 Pathogenic computational verdict based on 13 pathogenic predictions vs no benign predictions; (a) pathogenicity scoring methodology based on deep neural networks; (b) the pathogenicity of a variant based on evolutionary conservation, splice-site, mRNA, protein and regulatory features; (c) predict the functional consequences of non-coding and coding single nucleotide variants (SNVs); (d) spectral approach to the functional annotation of genetic variants in coding and noncoding regions; (e) Genomic Evolutionary Rate Profiling, a conservation score calculated by quantifying substitution deficits across multiple alignments of orthologues using the genomes of 35 mammals; (f) Phylogenetic P-values, scores based on multiple alignments of 99 vertebrate genome sequences to the human genome; (g) identify evolutionarily conserved elements in a multiple alignment, given a phylogenetic tree, based on 100 vertebrate genomes (including human); (h) FITness CONSequences of functional annotation, identifies genomic regions under selective pressure by integrating epigenomic signals from three ENCODE cell lines (GM12878, H1-hESC and HUVEC) with selective pressure inferred using the INSIGHT ((Inference of Natural Selection from Interspersed Genomically coHerent elemenTs) method; (i) integrates functional assays (such as ChIP-Seq) with selective pressure inferred using the INSIGHT method.; (l) indicates the expected fraction of neutral diversity that is present at a site, based on human single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) data
