This paper presents CalPen, a web-based tool for calculating penetrance (disease likelihood given a mutation) in complex genetic disorders. The authors validated CalPen against published penetrance calculations for schizophrenia-associated copy number variants (CNVs) and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). They analyzed 15 CNVs in 39,059 schizophrenia patients and 55,084 controls (average penetrance 7%, ranging from ~1.4% for 15q11.2 deletions to ~20% for 22q11.21 CNVs) and 145 SNPs in 45,405 patients and 122,761 controls (average penetrance 0.7%, with rs1801028 showing the highest at 1.6%).

About PRRG2

The protein encoded by this gene is a single-pass transmembrane protein containing an N-terminal gamma-carboxyglutamic acid (Gla) domain and tandem Pro/Leu-Pro-Xaa-Tyr (PY) motifs at its C-terminal end. The Gla domain is exposed on the cell surface while the PY motifs are cytoplasmic. The PY motifs of the encoded protein have been shown to interact with YAP1, a WW domain-containing protein. Therefore, it is thought that the encoded protein may be part of a signal transduction pathway. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
