PON-PS

PON-PS predicts the phenotypic severity due to amino acid substitutions. The method is trained by using severe and mild/moderate (called as non-severe) disease-causing variations and uses evolutionary conservation, properties of amino acids and sequence environment for prediction. PON-PS uses the PON-P2 predictor to filter out benign variations. The severity of the remaining variants are predicting by an ensemble of 100 random forest predictors.

The training and test datasets used in PON-PS are available in VariBench database.

The manuscript describing the method has been published in Human Mutation here.
