Variant features alone are equivalent to phenotyping 6 individuals with LQT1 and 4 unaffected individuals.
In silico predictors
| PROVEAN | PolyPhen-2 | BLAST-PSSM | REVEL | Penetrance Density LQT1 (%) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| -3.48 | 1.0 | 0 | 0.949 | 69 |
PROVEAN scores below -2 suggest deleterious impact. REVEL scores above 0.5–0.75 are often interpreted as likely pathogenic. PolyPhen-2 scores above 0.85 are typically pathogenic. BLAST-PSSM reflects evolutionary conservation; more negative values indicate rarer substitutions. Penetrance density summarises neighbouring residue risk (Kroncke et al. 2019).
