- Known disease-causing sites
- Stretches short reads find hard
Exons of the gene's MANE Select transcript (release v1.5), from NCBI and EMBL-EBI, on the GRCh38 reference genome.
Chromosome bands from UCSC's GRCh38 ideogram (2022-10-29).
Nearby genes from Ensembl release 116, on GRCh38.
Exons make up 2.5 kb of the gene's 23.9 kb; 1,854 of those bases code for the protein.
How a genome test reads VPS33B
44
positions in VPS33B where ClinVar classes a change as pathogenic or likely pathogenic
None of them falls in a region short reads find hard.
A whole genome covers all 23.9 kb of VPS33B, introns included, not only the 2.5 kb of exons.
