New cytogenetically visible copy number variant in region 8q21.2 [PDF]
Background Cytogenetically visible unbalanced chromosomal abnormalities (UBCA), reported for >50 euchromatic regions of almost all human autosomes, are comprised of a few megabases of DNA, and carriers are in many cases clinically healthy.

Association test using Copy Number Profile Curves (CONCUR) enhances power in rare copy number variant analysis. [PDF]
Copy number variants (CNVs) are the gain or loss of DNA segments in the genome that can vary in dosage and length. CNVs comprise a large proportion of variation in human genomes and impact health conditions.

CNViz: An R/Shiny Application for Interactive Copy Number Variant Visualization in Cancer
Copy number variants (CNVs) comprise a class of mutation which includes deletion, duplication, or amplification events that range in size from smaller than a single-gene or exon, to the size of a full chromosome.

Galactose starvation in a bloodstream form Trypanosoma brucei UDP-glucose 4'-epimerase conditional null mutant [PDF]
Galactose metabolism is essential for the survival of Trypanosoma brucei, the etiological agent of African sleeping sickness. T. brucei hexose transporters are unable to transport galactose, which is instead obtained through the epimerization of UDP ...

MCKAT: a multi-dimensional copy number variant kernel association test
Background Copy number variants (CNVs) are the gain or loss of DNA segments in the genome. Studies have shown that CNVs are linked to various disorders, including autism, intellectual disability, and schizophrenia.

Neurodevelopmental copy-number variants: A roadmap to improving outcomes by uniting patient advocates, researchers, and clinicians for collective impact [PDF]
Copy-number variants and structural variants (CNVs/SVs) drive many neurodevelopmental-related disorders. While many neurodevelopmental-related CNVs/SVs give rise to complex phenotypes, the overlap in phenotypic presentation between independent CNVs can ...

Copy number, linkage disequilibrium and disease association in the FCGR locus [PDF]
The response of a leukocyte to immune complexes (ICs) is modulated by receptors for the Fc region of IgG (FcgammaRs), and alterations in their affinity or function have been associated with risk of autoimmune diseases, including systemic lupus ...
