Geneticists wanting a tool to identify and classify causal variants for inherited disease risk
About VSClinical
VSClinical allows for the clinical interpretation of variants based on ACMG & AMP guidelines. The VSClinical guided workflow enables following the American College of Medical Genetics (ACMG) guidelines used to identify and classify causal variants for inherited disease risk, cancer predisposition, and the diagnosis of rare diseases. The ACMG/AMP joint guidelines for variant interpretation provide a set of criteria to score variants and place them into one of five classification tiers. Following the guidelines requires deep diving into the annotations, genomic context, and existing clinical assertions about every variant. VSClinical provides a tailored workflow to score each relevant criterion while also providing all the bioinformatic, literature and evidence from clinical knowledgebases to assist in the scoring and interpretation process. VSClinical is designed to allow variant scientists to efficiently process variants.

Folklore Clinical Variant Interpretation
Folklore is Helena Bioinformatics’ flagship clinical variant interpretation platform for genomics laboratories. It combines VCF analysis, curated evidence, literature, phenotype, inheritance and prioritisation in a traceable specialist workflow. Panels, exomes and genomes include nuclear, mitochondrial and structural/copy-number variants with ACMG/AMP, MMDWG and Riggs frameworks.
Its separate public, read-only Folklore MCP 1.6.0 offers 11 tools for public GRCh38 germline variant evidence, literature, ClinGen gene-disease associations and optional support. New resolve_gene, get_gene_profile, get_gene_section and search_gene_literature add explicit gene selection, snapshot-pinned profiles and sections, and separate live gene literature. MCP uses Streamable HTTP without an account or API key; it accepts no patient data, VCF uploads or batch analysis.
Results support qualified professional review and are not diagnoses or treatment recommendations.

AlphaGenome
AlphaGenome is a Google DeepMind API and Python toolkit for computational genomics research. Researchers submit DNA sequences or genetic variants to obtain model predictions about gene expression, RNA splicing, chromatin accessibility, transcription-factor binding, histone marks, and genome contacts. The API supports variant scoring and analyses of genomic regions in human and mouse data, with tutorials and reference materials for programmatic workflows. It can help researchers investigate how genetic changes may affect gene regulation and prioritize hypotheses for further study. Access is provided through a hosted API, with a Python package for local client-side use and notebook examples. AlphaGenome is intended for research and is not validated or approved for clinical or diagnostic use; its predictions should not be treated as clinical results.
