Description

The "Prediction Scores" container track includes subtracks showing the results of prediction scores.

BayesDel

BayesDel is a deleteriousness meta-score for coding and non-coding variants, single nucleotide variants, and small insertion/deletions. The range of the score is from -1.29334 to 0.75731. The higher the score, the more likely the variant is pathogenic.

MaxAF stands for maximum allele frequency. The old ACMG (American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics) rules utilize allele frequency to classify variants, so the "BayesDel without MaxAF" tracks were created to avoid double-dipping. However, new ACMG rules will not include allele frequency, so it is okay to use the "BayesDel with MaxAF" for variant classification in the future. For gene discovery research, it is better to use BayesDel with MaxAF.

For gene discovery research, a universal cutoff value (0.0692655 with MaxAF, -0.0570105 without MaxAF) was obtained by maximizing sensitivity and specificity in classifying ClinVar variants; Version 1 (build date 2017-08-24).

For clinical variant classification, Bayesdel thresholds have been calculated for a variant to reach various levels of evidence; please refer to Pejaver et al. 2022 for general application of these scores in clinical applications.

Display Conventions and Configuration

BayesDel

There are eight subtracks for the BayesDel track: four include pre-computed MaxAF-integrated BayesDel scores for missense variants, one for each base. The other four are of the same format, but scores are not MaxAF-integrated.

For SNVs, at each genome position, there are three values per position, one for every possible nucleotide mutation. The fourth value, "no mutation", representing the reference allele, (e.g. A to A) is always set to zero.

Note: There are cases in which a genomic position will have one value missing.

When using this track, zoom in until you can see every base pair at the top of the display. Otherwise, there are several nucleotides per pixel under your mouse cursor and instead of an actual score, the tooltip text will show the average score of all nucleotides under the cursor. This is indicated by the prefix "~" in the mouseover.

Data Access

BayesDel scores are available at the BayesDel website.

Methods

BayesDel data was converted from the files provided on the BayesDel_170824 Database. The number 170824 is the date (2017-08-24) the scores were created. Both sets of BayesDel scores are available in this database, one integrated MaxAF (named BayesDel_170824_addAF) and one without (named BayesDel_170824_noAF). Data conversion was performed using custom Python scripts.
