Lessons Learned From Neuroimaging Studies of Copy Number Variants: A Systematic Review.

open access: yesBiological Psychiatry, 2021
Pathogenic copy number variants (CNVs) and aneuploidies alter gene dosage and are associated with neurodevelopmental psychiatric disorders such as autism spectrum disorder and schizophrenia.

Copy number variants in pharmacogenetic genes [PDF]

open access: yesTrends in Molecular Medicine, 2011
Variation in drug efficacy and toxicity remains an important clinical concern. Presently, single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) only explain a portion of this problem, even in situations where the pharmacological trait is clearly heritable. The Human CNV Project identified copy number variations (CNVs) across approximately 12% of the human genome, and ...

Identification of copy number variants contributing to hallux valgus

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2023
Hallux valgus is a common form of foot deformity, and genetic factors contribute substantially to the pathogenesis of hallux valgus deformity. We conducted a genetic study on the structural variants underlying familial hallux valgus using whole exome ...

Endometriosis is associated with rare copy number variants. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Endometriosis is a complex gynecological condition that affects 6-10% of women in their reproductive years and is defined by the presence of endometrial glands and stroma outside the uterus.

Copy number variants in neurexin genes: phenotypes and mechanisms

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Genetics and Development, 2021
Neurexins are central to trans-synaptic cell adhesion and signaling during synapse specification and maintenance. The past two decades of human genetics research have identified structural variations in the neurexin gene family, in particular NRXN1 copy ...

Mitochondrial DNA Haplogroups and Variants Predispose to Chagas Disease Cardiomyopathy

open access: yesHearts, 2023
Cardiomyopathies are major causes of heart failure. Chagas disease (CD) is caused by the parasite Trypanosoma cruzi, and it is endemic in Central and South America.

Technical standards for the interpretation and reporting of constitutional copy number variants: a joint consensus recommendation of the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG) and the Clinical Genome Resource (ClinGen)

open access: yesGenetics in Medicine, 2019
Copy-number analysis to detect disease-causing losses and gains across the genome is recommended for the evaluation of individuals with neurodevelopmental disorders and/or multiple congenital anomalies, as well as for fetuses with ultrasound ...

Copy number variants outperform SNPs to reveal genotype-temperature association in a marine species

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2020
Copy number variants (CNVs) are a major component of genotypic and phenotypic variation in genomes. Yet, our knowledge on genotypic variation and evolution is often limited to single nucleotide polymorphism (SNPs) and the role of CNVs has been overlooked

Association testing of copy number variants in schizophrenia and autism spectrum disorders

open access: yesJournal of Neurodevelopmental Disorders, 2012
Background Autism spectrum disorders and schizophrenia have been associated with an overlapping set of copy number variant loci, but the nature and degree of overlap in copy number variants (deletions compared to duplications) between these two disorders

On the frequency of copy number variants [PDF]

open access: yesBioinformatics, 2008
Abstract Motivation: Estimating the frequency distribution of copy number variants (CNVs) is an important aspect of the effort to characterize this new type of genetic variation. Currently, most studies report a strong skew toward low-frequency CNVs. In this article, our goal is to investigate the frequencies of CNVs.
