This is ready for review. The main thing I am unsure of is how I described the differing locus definitions. |
Update evidence and genomic coordinates for SCA_EP400 ep400 provisional liftover adding family 2 Update data add family 2 info Update data fix nomad Update data add description Update data ep400 nuance Update data add exon fix actually fix this time clarify broad range why is year a string and not an int? Update data show alternate locus definition

I suggested some rewording for details and have a few minor items that might need your follow-up

Citations for mechanism detail? Also, is there a value for "mechanism"?

There is not a value for mechanism. We only know the mechanisms of similar loci and the mechanism of other EP400 mutations. There isn't mechanistic information for this one. I'll delete the detail part since it might be misinterpreted as toxic polyQ GoF

Didn't they use ExpansionHunter on short reads as well? For controls? This was the stated reason for using the narrow locus definition I think.

They did in the controls. We do not know if short read is able to actually detect this expansion (from this paper at least) since the affected individuals were flagged from long read. I could put info that it is useful for controls, though the convention for other detection fields has been about detecting the expansion. What do you think?

If it's not in the other loci, I think it's probably fine to skip it.

Looks like the benign range should be 8-21 pure CAGs based on the population data (not sure if I'm reading those off the plot right!). If we assume the reference locus structure, that would be (CAG)6(CAA)2(CAG)8-21(CAA)1(CAG)4(CAA)(CAG) Correction: Update: |
…ge to include the length with interruptions.
