- :alt: The figure depicts an assayed variant from a patient,and two separate knowledgebase entries, each with associated genomic knowledge. Due to differing representation formats, these variants and assocaited knowledge are all siloed. However, by representing them with Cat-VRS, each are converted into categorical variant representations under a single common representation specification. As a result, the Cat-VRS representations become easily comparable with each other, and both assayed-to-categorical and categorical-to-categorical variant matching becomes possible under a common framework. By extension, the knowledge of each respective knowledgebase entry can be integrated as part of knowledgebase curation, or applied to the assayed variant of interest in clinical pipelines.
