AlphaMissense

By Google DeepMind

Catalog of 71 million human missense mutations classified for clinical pathogenicity

AlphaMissense adapts AlphaFold to predict the clinical pathogenicity of all 71 million possible human single amino acid substitutions, categorizing 89% of variants with high confidence.

Comprehensive predictions for all 71 million possible human missense variantsTrained on population frequency data and structural context without clinical label leakageClassified 89% of missense variants as either likely pathogenic (32%) or likely benign (57%)Pre-computed database and downloadable BigWig/VCF files for integration into clinical pipelines
