  1. *Poly-Phen2: in the study, we used scores generated by the HumVar trained model as it is preferred for the diagnosis of Mendelian diseases. The scores range from 0 to 1, and a substitution with larger score has a higher possibility to damage the protein function. The program evaluates an amino acid substitution as D = probably damaging (if the score is in the range 1-0.909), P = possibly damaging (score is in the range 0.908-0.447), B = benign (score ≤ 0.446)
  2. SIFT: SIFT The amino acid substitution is predicted to be D = damaging if the score is <0.05, otherwise it is predicted as T = tolerated
  3. FATHMM: The amino acid substitution is predicted to be D = damaging if the score is < −1.5; otherwise SNP is predicted to be T = tolerated
  4. MutationTaster: The scores range from 0 to 1. The larger score suggests a higher probability to cause a human disease. The program output is A = disease causing automatic, D = disease causing, N = polymorphism, P = polymorphism automatic
