Deskripsi

Low frequency coding single-nucleotide variants (SNVs) are predicted to disproportionately affect protein function. Here, the authors evaluate 2,009 missense SNVs across 2,185 protein-protein interactions using yeast two-hybrid and protein complementation assays and find that disruptive SNVs often occur in disease-associated genes.
