Motivation In silico prediction tools are essential for identifying variants which create or disrupt cis-splicing motifs. However, there are limited options for genome-scale discovery of splice-altering variants. Results We have developed Spliceogen, a highly scalable pipeline integrating predictions from some of the individually best performing models for splice motif prediction: MaxEntScan, GeneSplicer, ESRseq and Branchpointer. Availability and implementation Spliceogen is available as a command line tool which accepts VCF/BED inputs and handles both single nucleotide variants (SNVs) and indels (https://github.com/VCCRI/Spliceogen). SNV databases with prediction scores are also available, covering all possible SNVs at all genomic positions within all Gencode-annotated multi-exon transcripts. Supplementary information Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.
