  1. aA list of all Qatari variants and genes was compiled from all Qatari variants and the genes responsible for these variants identified in datasets described in Supplementary Table 1.
  2. bThe comprehensive list of all Qatari variants of interest for research and screening in single gene (Mendelian) disorder (SGD) was compiled from the subset of the list of all Qatari variants/genes identified in ClinVar and predicted to be of high or moderate impact by SnpEff.
