MTSplice predicts effects of genetic variants on tissue-specific splicing

Abstract We develop the free and open-source model Multi-tissue Splicing (MTSplice) to predict the effects of genetic variants on splicing of cassette exons in 56 human tissues. MTSplice combines MMSplice, which models constitutive regulatory sequences, with a new neural network that models tissue-s...
