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 CACNB2
This gene encodes a subunit of a voltage-dependent calcium channel protein that is a member of the voltage-gated calcium channel superfamily. The gene product was originally identified as an antigen target in Lambert-Eaton myasthenic syndrome, an autoimmune disorder. Mutations in this gene are associated with Brugada syndrome. Alternatively spliced variants encoding different isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2013]
