fitCons (score unspecified)
Estimates the probability that a point mutation at each genomic position influences fitness, by clustering positions on functional genomic data and fitting each cluster's patterns of human polymorphism and divergence.
Results are recorded on linked configurations and versions of this method. Their settings and evaluations are kept separate below.
Results on linked records
This method has no results of its own in this release. One linked record has results. They are not assigned to the underlying method: each record keeps its own settings and evaluations, and its scores are on its own page.

Evidence
Source checking verifies the cited claim or transcription. It does not establish independent reproduction.
Evidence table
Inspect claims, sources and review details
Trace each statement to its source and review. A context-only reference supports the record generally; it does not verify an individual field. Source checking does not reproduce an experiment.
One row per statement and cited source. Multiple citations are not independent evaluations. Shared locators are labelled explicitly.

- provenance note
- fitCons fitness-consequence scores as listed by Livesey and Marsh 2025 (Table S2 'fitCons', population-free, from dbNSFP 4.2). dbNSFP carries an integrated fitCons score and cell-type fitCons scores; the paper does not say which was used, so this record is not merged with somatic-oncogenicity-20261009-method-integrated-fitcons.
