July 15, 2025 New pathogenicity prediction scores for human: MutScore and M-CAP
We have two new pathogenicity prediction score tracks available in our
Deleteriousness Predictions super track.
- MutScore (hg19/hg38) - MutScore is a pathogenicity predictor that integrates unsupervised
features of single DNA variants with information derived from such clusters. The predictive model
for MutScore was trained with a random forest approach on medically-relevant mutations and
subsequently tested against various genomic databases for both hereditary conditions and
cancer (ClinVar, HGMD, and DoCM) to achieve high performance.
-- M-CAP (hg19) - M-CAP is a pathogenicity classifier for
rare missense variants tuned to the high sensitivity required in the clinic. By combining previous
pathogenicity scores (including SIFT, Polyphen-2 and CADD) with novel features and a powerful
model, it yields an effective classifier, reducing a typical exome/genome rare (<1%) missense
variant (VUS) list from 300 to 120, while never mistaking 95% of known pathogenic variants as benign.
See the track description page
for more information and interpretation guidelines.
We would like to thank the authors of MutScore and M-CAP for creating and providing these data. We would also
like to thank Max Haeussler and Lou Nassar for the development and release of these tracks.
