Variant Interpretation:
What is the protocol for interpreting a variation as a VUS? Help
Interpretation and classification of clinical significance of the detected variant are based on catalogued information from the NCBI ClinVar database (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/), LOVD database (http://databases.lovd.nl/ shared/genes/) and other locus specific databases as well as information from published literatures

Are family members with defined clinical status recruited to assess significance of VUS without charge? Help
Yes.
