Transform-Domain Classification of Human Cells based on DNA Methylation Datasets [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2019
A novel method to classify human cells is presented in this work based on the transform-domain method on DNA methylation data. DNA methylation profile variations are observed in human cells with the progression of disease stages, and the proposal is based on this DNA methylation variation to classify normal and disease cells including cancer cells.

Functional Characterization of a Genetic Variant in the 5′ UTR of APC 1B Promoter in a Familial Adenomatous Polyposis Family

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pathogenic germline variants in the APC gene result in familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) which can escalate into colon cancer. Standard clinical testing failed to identify pathogenic variants in a 4‐generation FAP family. We identified and assessed co‐segregation of a 5′ untranslated region (UTR) variant, NM_001127511.3 (APC) c.‐40G>A ...
