Problems in variation interpretation guidelines and in their implementation in computational tools.

Methods used for variation interpretation have to be carefully selected. It should be possible to use only one predictor, with proven good performance or a limited number of complementary predictors with state-of-the-art performance. Bear in mind that diseases and pathogenicity have a continuum and variants are not dichotomic i.e. either pathogenic or benign, either.
