Classes

Class Description
Disease A recognizable grouping of pathological observed phenotypes occuring from a common cause
PhenotypicFeature An expressed characteristic of an organism
Gene A region (or regions) that includes all of the sequence elements necessary to encode a functional transcript. A gene may include regulatory regions, transcribed regions and/or other functional sequence regions.
GeneticCondition A disease, or a set of one or more co-occurring phenotypes, typically controlled by a single locus with a defined inheritance pattern.
Document A collection of information content entities intended to be understood together as a whole
Variant A genetic variant, preferably identified by a canonical allele id
FunctionalAssay Experimental evaluation of the functional effect of one or more genetic variants.
FunctionalAssayResult The result of assessing a genetic variant's effect under a single instance of a functional assay.

general_class The type or class of assay as identified using structured language or ontology terms. BAO or ECO terms are preferred when available.
material_used Reagents (biological or non-biological) that were use as comparators or other inputs to an assay. CLO, CO and BAI terms are preferred when available.
patient_derived_material_used Material used as inputs or comparators within an assay that were derived/sourced from a patient. These are differentiated from other materials used in an assay because of the possibility that use of such materials may involved confounding variables (e.g., other genetic variants) that may be difficult to account for in validation. CLO, CO and BAI terms are preferred when available.
document The primary document or manuscript in which the assay and its results are described. Supplementary descriptions can be recorded in "additional publication"
additional_document External document referenced in this document as providing details about the assay
read_out_description Free-text description of the type of readout of the assay
range Range of all possible output values of the assay. If qualitative this will comprise a list of terms indicating the observable results. If quantitative, this will indicate the units used.
normal_range The subset of possible output values which the authors of an assay classify as indicative of normal function.
abnormal_range The subset of possible output values which the authors of an assay classify as indicative of abnormal function.
indeterminate_range The subset of possible output values which the authors of an assay classify as indeterminante with respect to function.
validation_control_pathogenic None
validation_control_benign None
replication Description of the process for replication of an assay as provided by the document, or "not reported" if not specified.
statistical_analysis_description Description of the statistical analysis performed for validation and determination of thresholds of the assay, or "not reported" if the document does not specify.
significance_threshold The threshold for significance of measurements under this assay, as defined by the authors of the document (if provided).
range_type The type of values that can be expected from results of this assay (quantitative or qualitative). This could be inferred from the assay's range, but is encoded here to simplify searches.
units For quantitative assays, the default unit to be applied to individual results if not overridden.
result The measured value of this variant's effect on function. The value must be consistent with the range of the referenced assay.
result_assertion An assertion as to the categorized impact of the variant's effect, as described by the authors reporting the assay (if provided).
assay None
variant None
validation_control Optional field used to indicate if this result is for a variant that was used as a validation control for the assay either as a benign or pathogenic variant.
replicate_count The number of times the variant was evaluated using the assay to produce the reported result.
standard_deviation None
standard_error_of_mean None
intraquartile_range None
p_value None
is_approximation_by_curator A flag to indicate that the curator had to use some method of approximation of the result (e.g., by reading the value from a graph when numerical values were not provided by the authors reporting the assay).
