Copy Number Variants in Epileptic Encephalopathy
An international group of investigators at University of Washington, Seattle, USA, and various centers in Australia, New Zealand, Canada, and Israel evaluated 315 patients with epileptic encephalopathies for rare copy number variants (CNVs) using a whole-

Copy number variants and selective sweeps in natural populations of the house mouse (Mus musculus domesticus) [PDF]
Copy–number variants (CNVs) may play an important role in early adaptations, potentially facilitating rapid divergence of populations. We describe an approach to study this question by investigating CNVs present in natural populations of mice in the ...

aCNViewer: Comprehensive genome-wide visualization of absolute copy number and copy neutral variations. [PDF]
Copy number variations (CNV) include net gains or losses of part or whole chromosomal regions. They differ from copy neutral loss of heterozygosity (cn-LOH) events which do not induce any net change in the copy number and are often associated with ...

Copy Number Variation: Methods and Clinical Applications
Gains and losses of large segments of genomic DNA, known as copy number variants (CNVs) gained considerable interest in clinical diagnostics lately, as particular forms may lead to inherited genetic diseases.

CGHpower: exploring sample size calculations for chromosomal copy number experiments [PDF]
Background Determining a suitable sample size is an important step in the planning of microarray experiments. Increasing the number of arrays gives more statistical power, but adds to the total cost of the experiment.

Copy number variation in African Americans
Background Copy number variants (CNVs) have been identified in several studies to be associated with complex diseases. It is important, therefore, to understand the distribution of CNVs within and among populations.

Copy Number Variation at the APOL1 Locus. [PDF]
Two coding variants in the APOL1 gene (G1 and G2) explain most of the high rate of kidney disease in African Americans. APOL1-associated kidney disease risk inheritance follows an autosomal recessive pattern: The relative risk of kidney disease ...

Copy number variation screen identifies a rare de novo deletion at chromosome 15q13.1-13.3 in a child with language impairment [PDF]
A significant proportion of children (up to 7% in the UK) present with pronounced language difficulties that cannot be explained by obvious causes like other neurological and medical conditions.
