Fig. 2From: Whole exome sequencing in 342 congenital cardiac left sided lesion cases reveals extensive genetic heterogeneity and complex inheritance patternsRare predicted damaging variation in known and novel human cardiovascular malformation (CVM) genes. The x-axis describes counts of CVM cases carrying predicted loss-of-function (LOF) and damaging non-synonymous (DNS) variation with observed population frequency < 0.0005. CVM cases include LSL discovery (n = 342) and clinical cases referred to Baylor Genetics Lab (BG) presenting with cardiac malformations (Additional file 6: Table S5). Known CVM indicates counts of cases with variants in genes previously implicated with human CVM in OMIM; Phenotypic Expansion indicates genes associated with a human disorder not previously associated with CVM; Novel Human CVM genes have not previously been associated with human CVM but were ascertained by our candidate gene strategy (Additional file 3: Table S3)Back to article page
