SVInterpreter: A Comprehensive Topologically Associated Domain-Based Clinical Outcome Prediction Tool for Balanced and Unbalanced Structural Variants
With the advent of genomic sequencing, a number of balanced and unbalanced structural variants (SVs) can be detected per individual. Mainly due to incompleteness and the scattered nature of the available annotation data of the human genome, manual interpretation of the SV’s clinical significance is...

With the advent of genomic sequencing, a number of balanced and unbalanced structural variants (SVs) can be detected per individual. Mainly due to incompleteness and the scattered nature of the available annotation data of the human genome, manual interpretation of the SV’s clinical significance is laborious and cumbersome. Since bioinformatic tools developed for this task are limited, a comprehensive tool to assist clinical outcome prediction of SVs is warranted. Herein, we present SVInterpreter, a free Web application, which analyzes both balanced and unbalanced SVs using topologically associated domains (TADs) as genome units. Among others, gene-associated data (as function and dosage sensitivity), phenotype similarity scores, and copy number variants (CNVs) scoring metrics are retrieved for an informed SV interpretation.
