Comparison of locus-specific databases for BRCA1 and BRCA2 variants reveals disparity in variant classification within and among databases

Genetic variants of uncertain clinical significance (VUSs) are a common outcome of clinical genetic testing. Locus-specific variant databases (LSDBs) have been established for numerous disease-associated genes as a research tool for the interpretation of genetic sequence variants to facilitate varia...
