HACE1 deficiency causes an autosomal recessive neurodevelopmental syndrome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background: The genetic etiology of neurodevelopmental defects is extremely diverse, and the lack of distinctive phenotypic features means that genetic criteria are often required for accurate diagnostic classification. We aimed to identify the causative

Lack of involvement of known DNA methyltransferases in familial hydatidiform mole implies the involvement of other factors in establishment of imprinting in the human female germline

open access: yesBMC Genetics, 2003
Background Differential methylation of the two alleles is a hallmark of imprinted genes. Correspondingly, loss of DNA methyltransferase function results in aberrant imprinting and abnormal post-fertilization development.

Genome-Wide Runs of Homozygosity Revealed Selection Signatures in Bos indicus

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2020
Genome-wide runs of homozygosity (ROH) are suitable for understanding population history, calculating genomic inbreeding, deciphering genetic architecture of complex traits and diseases as well as identifying genes linked with agro-economic traits ...

Locating a novel autosomal recessive genetic variant in the cattle glucokinase gene using only WGS data from three cases and six carriers

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2022
New Mendelian genetic conditions, which adversely affect livestock, arise all the time. To manage them effectively, some methods need to be devised that are quick and accurate.

Comparative evaluation of genomic inbreeding parameters in seven commercial and autochthonous pig breeds

open access: yesAnimal, 2020
Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotyping tools, which can analyse thousands of SNPs covering the whole genome, have opened new opportunities to estimate the inbreeding level of animals directly using genome information.

“Assessing the Impact of Individual Autozygosity on Complex Traits”

open access: yes, 2022
Abstract Autozygosity, the proportion of the genome that is homozygous by descent, has been associated with variation in multiple health-related traits impacting evolutionary fitness. Autozygosity (FROH) is typically measured from runs of homozygosity (ROHs) that arise when identical-by-descent (IBD) haplotypes are inherited from each parent ...

Widespread, long-term admixture between grey wolves and domestic dogs across Eurasia and its implications for the conservation status of hybrids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Hybridisation between a domesticated species and its wild ancestor is an important conservation problem, especially if it results in the introgression of domestic gene variants into wild species.

RZooRoH: An R package to characterize individual genomic autozygosity and identify homozygous‐by‐descent segments

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, 2019
Identifying homozygous‐by‐descent (HBD) regions in individual genomes is highly valuable to infer the recent history of populations and to provide insights into trait architecture.
