Copy Number Variation: Methods and Clinical Applications

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
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.

Copy number variation in African Americans

open access: yesBMC Genetics, 2009
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.

Pathogenic NF1 truncating mutation and copy number alterations in a dedifferentiated liposarcoma with multiple lung metastasis: a case report

open access: yesBMC Medical Genetics, 2020
Background Dedifferentiated liposarcoma (DDLPS), which accounts for an estimated 15–20% of liposarcomas, is a high-grade and aggressive malignant neoplasm, exhibiting a poor response to available therapeutic agents.

Copy number variation across European populations.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Genome analysis provides a powerful approach to test for evidence of genetic variation within and between geographical regions and local populations. Copy number variants which comprise insertions, deletions and duplications of genomic sequence provide ...

Copy Number Variation at the APOL1 Locus. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
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 in Inflammatory Breast Cancer

open access: yesCells, 2023
Identification of a unique genomic biomarker in de novo inflammatory breast cancer (IBC) may provide an insight into the biology of this aggressive disease. The goal of our study was to elucidate biomarkers associated with IBC.

Including copy number variation in association studies to predict genotypic values [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The objective of this study was to investigate, both empirically and deterministically, the ability to explain genetic variation resulting from a copy number polymorphism (CNP) by including the CNP, either by its genotype or by a continuous derivation ...

Genomic copy number variation association study in Caucasian patients with nonsyndromic cryptorchidism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Copy number variation (CNV) is a potential contributing factor to many genetic diseases. Here we investigated the potential association of CNV with nonsyndromic cryptorchidism, the most common male congenital genitourinary defect, in a Caucasian ...

Adaptive copy number evolution in malaria parasites. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2008
Copy number polymorphism (CNP) is ubiquitous in eukaryotic genomes, but the degree to which this reflects the action of positive selection is poorly understood.

Performance of four modern whole genome amplification methods for copy number variant detection in single cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Whole genome amplification (WGA) has become an invaluable tool to perform copy number variation (CNV) detection in single, or a limited number of cells.
