non-truncating variants in cohorts


The table below lists the rare (MAF<0.0001 in ExAC) non-truncating variants identified in a cohort of patients. As the background population rate of rare non-truncating variants () is greater than this case frequency (), there is no excess of variants in this patient cohort, suggesting that non-truncating variants are not causative for .
