Figure 1. Disease-associated mutation features
(A) Violin plots of the CADD scores across the various HGMD molecular categories of 174,183 disease-associated deleterious mutations. (B) A density plot of the proportion of 95% CIs for HGMD disease-associated deleterious mutations overlap between a given disease-causing human gene and all other 2,946 disease-causing human genes. (C) The 95% CIs MSC scores of HGMD 2,947 disease-associated genes. Blue color (CADD score below the MSC) suggests a low impact for the gene, orange color (CADD score above or equal to the MSC) suggests high impact, and the horizontal purple dashed lines indicate current predictions based on fixed CADD scores.
