      Since most candidate genes will not prove to be associated with the primary disease(s) of interest, the “bread and butter” of VAPSE-based analysis is genotype-to-phenotype searches. Genotype-to-phenotype searches constitute a historical cohort analysis [1]. The “exposed” population is composed of individuals harboring a VAPSE and the “unexposed” population is comprised of patients who do not harbor the VAPSE.

      However, the further improvement with correct classification as to high-risk or low-risk status illustrates the value of distinguishing the most important mutations. At one level, we can attempt to distinguish what Sobell et al. (1992) call VAPSEs (variations affecting protein sequence or expression) from silent allelic variation. At another level, single-locus substitutions at evolutionarily conserved sites might be separated from those at nonconserved sites.
