Proactive functional genomics for variant interpretation in CALM1, CALM2, and CALM3. (A) Precision recall curve for variant classifications from Weile et al. displays AUC 0.87 and identifies 71% of pathogenic variants at 90% precision. (B) Variant effect map of CALM1, CALM2, and CALM3 in terms of log10-likelihood ratio, with insets indicating likelihood of pathogenicity for variants evaluated in this report. Columns represent each amino acid position with each row representing a different variant at that position. (C) EKG demonstrating long QT (525 ms) in Case 1. (D) Ventricular ectopy consistent with catecholaminergic polymorphic tachycardia at peak exercise in Case 1. (E) Pedigree demonstrating complex family history of cardiomyopathy and sudden death despite de novo status of the CALM1 VUS in Case 3.
