PANGEN: an online platform for the comparison and creation of diagnostic gene panels

Targeted gene panel sequencing is used to limit the search for causative genetic variants solely to genes with an established association with the phenotype. The design of gene panels is challenging due to the lack of consensus regarding phenotypic associations for some genes, which results in high variation in gene composition for the same panel offered by different laboratories. We developed PANGEN, a platform that provides a centralized resource for gene panel information, with the ability to...
