Comparison of the Accuracy of Epistasis and Haplotype Models for Genomic Prediction of Seven Human Phenotypes

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2023
The accuracy of predicting seven human phenotypes of 3657–7564 individuals using global epistasis effects was evaluated and compared to the accuracy of haplotype genomic prediction using 380,705 SNPs and 10-fold cross-validation studies.

Speciation Genetics: Epistasis, Conflict and the Origin of Species [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2007
Evolutionary biologists have long recognized that the sterility and inviability of species hybrids must involve incompatible epistatic interactions between two (or more) genes. The first pair of such hybrid incompatibility genes has now been identified.

From junk to function — How weak selection in eukaryotes builds new parts and drives genomic complexity

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
How do genomes gain new functional parts? In eukaryotes, which tend to evolve under weak selection, much of the genome is junk. Palazzo and Qiu borrow the logic of Markov chains to show how non‐functional DNA becomes functional through the appearance of intermediate states, which arise due to epistasis, buffering, and biochemical messiness, allowing ...

Concurrent outcomes from multiple approaches of epistasis analysis for human body mass index associated loci provide insights into obesity biology

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Genome wide association studies (GWAS) have focused on elucidating the genetic architecture of complex traits by assessing single variant effects in additive genetic models, albeit explaining a fraction of the trait heritability.

Loss of IGF‐1R impairs DNA‐PKcs recruitment to chromatin leading to defective end‐joining

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
IGF‐1R promotes radioresistance by facilitating DNA‐PKcs recruitment to chromatin, enabling non‐homologous end‐joining (NHEJ) repair of double‐strand breaks. Inhibition or loss of IGF‐1R disrupts this recruitment to damage sites, driving compensatory reliance on microhomology‐mediated end‐joining (MMEJ) repair.

Deep Contrastive Learning for High‐Throughput Prediction of Drug Resistance Mutations from Sequences

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents DeepMutDTA, a deep learning framework aimed at predicting mutation‐induced changes in protein‐drug interactions and prioritizing variants potentially linked to drug resistance. Trained on large‐scale data, it incorporates SimSiam‐MuTF, a label‐aware contrastive fine‐tuning strategy that encourages separation between WT and MT ...

eQTL epistasis – challenges and computational approaches

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2013
The determination of eQTL epistasis - a form of functional interaction between genetic loci that affect gene expression - is an important step towards the thorough understanding of gene regulation.

Cross Kingdom Metabolic Engineering Paradigm Elevating Sustainable Protein Production

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Confronting the dual crisis of escalating global protein demand and unsustainable agriculture necessitates transformative solutions. Here, we pioneer evolutionary insights from maize nitrogen optimization via asparagine synthetase (ASNS) to rewire metabolism in Pichia pastoris.

Generation means analysis of physiological and agronomical targeted traits in durum wheat (Triticum durum Desf.) cross

open access: yesRevista Facultad Nacional de Agronomía Medellín, 2019
Genetic parameters such as leaf relative water content, leaf chlorophyll content, plant height, above-ground biomass, harvest index, grain yield, and grain yield components of Bousselam/Mrb5 durum wheat (Triticum durum Desf.) cross were estimated based ...
