Single amino acid variants (SAVs) are one of the main causes of Mendelian disorders, and play an important role in the development of many complex diseases. At the same time, they are the most common kind of variation affecting coding DNA, without generally presenting any damaging effect. With the advent of next generation sequencing technologies, the detection of these variants in patients and the general population is easier than ever, but the characterization of the functional effects of each variant remains an open challenge. It is our objective in this work to tackle this problem by developing machine learning based in silico SAVs pathology predictors. Having the PMut classic predictor as a starting point, we have rethought the entire...
