Influence of autozygosity on common disease risk across the phenotypic spectrum [PDF]

open access: yesCell, 2023
Autozygosity is associated with rare Mendelian disorders and clinically relevant quantitative traits. We investigated associations between the fraction of the genome in runs of homozygosity (FROH) and common diseases in Genes & Health (n = 23,978 ...

Global Autozygosity Is Associated with Cancer Risk, Mutational Signature and Prognosis

open access: yesCancers, 2020
Global autozygosity quantifies the genome-wide levels of homozygous and heterozygous variants. It is the signature of non-random reproduction, though it can also be driven by other factors, and has been used to assess risk in various diseases.

Declining autozygosity over time: An exploration in over 1 million individuals from three diverse cohorts [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Human Genetics, 2023
Previous studies have hypothesized that autozygosity is decreasing over generational time. However, these studies were limited to relatively small samples (n \u3c 11,000) lacking in diversity, which may limit the generalizability of their findings.

Computation of multilocus prior probability of autozygosity for complex inbred pedigrees [PDF]

open access: yesGenetic Epidemiology, 1997
Homozygosity mapping is a very powerful method for mapping rare recessive diseases in humans. In many applications, it is often desirable to compute prior (or unconditional) multilocus probability of autozygosity for inbred pedigrees. This paper proposes

Association Between Autozygosity and Major Depression: Stratification Due to Religious Assortment [PDF]

open access: yesBehavior Genetics, 2013
The effects of inbreeding on the health of offspring can be studied by measuring genome-wide autozygosity as the proportion of the genome in runs of homozygosity (

Autozygosity Mapping with Exome Sequence Data

open access: yesHuman Mutation, 2013
Autozygosity mapping is a powerful method for the identification of recessively inherited disease genes using small inbred families. Typically, microarray SNP genotype data are first used to identify autozygous regions as extended runs of homozygous ...

Estimating the human mutation rate using autozygosity in a founder population [PDF]

open access: yesNature Genetics, 2012
Knowledge of the rate and pattern of new mutation is critical to the understanding of human disease and evolution. We used extensive autozygosity in a genealogically well-defined population of Hutterites to estimate the human sequence mutation rate over ...

Autozygosity mapping of a large consanguineous Pakistani family reveals a novel non-syndromic autosomal recessive mental retardation locus on 11p15-tel

open access: yesNeurogenetics, 2011
Autosomal recessive inherited mental retardation is an extremely heterogeneous disease and accounts for approximately 25% of all non-syndromic mental retardation cases.
