Genome-Wide Detection of Single-Nucleotide and Copy-Number Variations of a Single Human Cell [PDF]
Kindred cells can have different genomes because of dynamic changes in DNA. Single cell sequencing is needed to characterize these genomic differences but has been hindered by whole-genome amplification bias, resulting in low genome coverage.

Loss-of-function mutations in the CABLES1 gene are a novel cause of Cushing's disease. [PDF]
The CABLES1 cell cycle regulator participates in the adrenal-pituitary negative feedback, and its expression is reduced in corticotropinomas, pituitary tumors with a largely unexplained genetic basis.

Genome-wide Copy Number Profiling on High-density Bacterial Artificial Chromosomes, Single-nucleotide Polymorphisms, and Oligonucleotide Microarrays: A Platform Comparison based on Statistical Power Analysis [PDF]
Recently, comparative genomic hybridization onto bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) arrays (array-based comparative genomic hybridization) has proved to be successful for the detection of submicroscopic DNA copy-number variations in health and disease.

Copy number variations in urine cell-free DNA from bladder neoplasm patients
Bladder cancer is a common malignancy, and its diagnosis is based on invasive procedures such as cystoscopy. Genetic aberrations play an important role in the development of many diseases, including bladder cancer.

Performance of four modern whole genome amplification methods for copy number variant detection in single cells [PDF]
Whole genome amplification (WGA) has become an invaluable tool to perform copy number variation (CNV) detection in single, or a limited number of cells.

Data from a long time evolution experiment with Escherichia Coli and from a large study on copy number variations in subjects with european ancestry are analyzed in order to argue that mutations can be described as Levy flights in the mutation space ...

AIRE variations in Addison's disease and autoimmune polyendocrine syndromes (APS):partial gene deletions contribute to APS I [PDF]
Udgivelsesdato: MarAutoimmune Addison's disease (AAD) is often associated with other components in autoimmune polyendocrine syndromes (APS). Whereas APS I is caused by mutations in the AIRE gene, the susceptibility genes for AAD and APS II are unclear ...

An Integrated Approach for RNA-seq Data Normalization
Background DNA copy number alteration is common in many cancers. Studies have shown that insertion or deletion of DNA sequences can directly alter gene expression, and significant correlation exists between DNA copy number and gene expression.
