The phrase "a variant class" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts where you are discussing a category or group that has variations or differences within it, often in academic or technical writing.
Example: "In our study, we identified a variant class of species that exhibited unique behavioral traits."
Alternatives: "a variant group" or "a variant category".
In order to study the effect of harvesting strategies on the age of first reproduction, we assume that the fish population can be separated into a resident class and a variant class which differ only in the probability of first reproducing as a small adult at two years old.
As well, the variability of individual variant CADD scores within a variant class (missense, misstart, etc).
A SIFT model where SIFT is the only predictor apart from a variant class.
Provision of consistent, clinically applicable variant annotation of NGS data has proved difficult, particularly of indels, an important variant class in clinical genomics.
Thus, in the practical implementation for variant calling a single implementation of BFAST suffices to identify virtually all variant classes and be robust against machine read errors.
Chromatin states were also found to be good markers of functionality across all variant classes.
We also assume that the variant class has a probability (gamma^{prime}> gamma) of reproducing as a small adult.
Assuming that the two classes differ only in the probability γ and (gamma^{prime}), we can obtain a model for the dynamics of the combined classes by considering the following 8-equation system, where the (N^{prime}) populations refer to the variant class with an increased probability (gamma^{prime}) of first reproducing as a small adult.
Each selected string was randomly altered to contain a specified number of mismatches, insertions or deletions, to produce a final read for the variant class of reads.
A prior odds and SIFT model contains only prior odds of genes, SIFT effect and a separate intercept for each variant class.
For comparison against existing methods we also quantified the performance of SIFT on the same data set, with or without gene-specific priors: A prior odds and SIFT model contains only prior odds of genes, SIFT effect and a separate intercept for each variant class.
