Abstract
The identification of disease causing variants in the list of all variants called in sequencing data, is often achieved by the sequential use of various heuristic filters with several underlying assumptions. We describe the R package “Mendelian” that offers fast and convenient filters to analyze putative variants under both recessive and dominant models of inheritance, with variable degrees of penetrance and detectance. Analysis of pedigrees, including trios, is supported. Filtering against variant databases and annotation of variants is also included. Finally, this package is not species specific and supports parallel computation.
