In addition to the basic calculations of the affected copy number of a variant, the Zygosity-Predictor can integrate the influence of several variants on a gene and ultimately make a statement if and how many wild-type copies of the gene are left. This information proves to be of particular use in the context of translational medicine. For example, in cancer genomes, the Zygosity-Predictor can address whether unmutated copies of tumor-suppressor genes are present. Beyond this, it is possible to make this statement for all genes of an organism. The Zygosity-Predictor was primarily developed to handle SNVs and INDELs (later addressed as small-variants) of somatic and germline origin. In order not to overlook severe effects outside of the small-variant context, it has been extended with the assessment of large scale deletions, which cause losses of whole genes or parts of them. authors: - family-names: Rheinnecker given-names: Marco email: marco.rheinnecker@dkfz-heidelberg.de orcid: https://orcid.org/0009-0009-7181-3977 - family-names: Ruebsam given-names: Marc - family-names: Huebschmann given-names: Daniel - family-names: Froehlich given-names: Martina - family-names: Hutter given-names: Barbara preferred-citation: type: article title: ZygosityPredictor authors: - family-names: Rheinnecker given-names: Marco email: marco.rheinnecker@dkfz-heidelberg.de orcid: https://orcid.org/0009-0009-7181-3977 - family-names: Rübsam given-names: Marc - family-names: Fröhlich given-names: Martina - family-names: Paramasivam given-names: Nagarajan - family-names: Heilig given-names: Christoph E - family-names: Fröhling given-names: Stefan - family-names: Schlenk given-names: Richard F - family-names: Hutter given-names: Barbara - family-names: Hübschmann given-names: Daniel year: '2024' journal: Bioinformatics Advances doi: 10.1093/bioadv/vbae017 volume: '4' issue: '1' repository: https://bioc.r-universe.dev commit: 4445bbb19ad1e86038d8e03292a44e35a24b59b9 date-released: '2023-12-08' contact: - family-names: Rheinnecker given-names: Marco email: marco.rheinnecker@dkfz-heidelberg.de orcid: https://orcid.org/0009-0009-7181-3977
