The Case | Epistasis and urolithiasis

open access: yesKidney International, 2017
A 26-year-old woman was referred for recurrent urolithiasis. The first manifestation occurred 3 years before, followed by recurrent acute episodes. She underwent one ureteral stent placement, one shock wave lithotripsy, and at last a flexible ureteroscopy that allowed to retrieve all the remaining stones.

Atlas of epistasis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
AbstractWe performed a genome-wide epistasis search across 502 phenotypes in case control matched cohorts from the UK Biobank. We identified 152,519 genome wide significant interactions in 68 distinct phenotypes, and 3,398 interactions in 19 phenotypes were successfully replicated in independent cohorts from the Finngen consortium.

Multary epistasis

open access: yesBulletin of the Belgian Mathematical Society - Simon Stevin, 2001
Abstract: In this note, we introduce and study the notion of normalized epistasis of a fitness function over not necessary binary alphabets, as an indicator of its CA-hardness, Fitness functions with minimal and maximal normalized epistasis are explicitly described.

Dynamic network-based epistasis analysis: Boolean examples

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2011
In this review we focus on how the hierarchical and single-path assumptions of epistasis analysis can bias the topologies of gene interactions infered. This has been acknowledged in several previous papers and reviews, but here we emphasize the critical ...

Idiosyncratic epistasis creates universals in mutational effects and evolutionary trajectories

open access: yesNature Ecology & Evolution, 2020
Patterns of epistasis and shapes of fitness landscapes are of wide interest because of their bearings on a number of evolutionary theories. The common phenomena of slowing fitness increases during adaptations and diminishing returns from beneficial ...

Towards a Better Basis Search through a Surrogate Model-Based Epistasis Minimization for Pseudo-Boolean Optimization

open access: yesMathematics, 2020
Epistasis, which indicates the difficulty of a problem, can be used to evaluate the basis of the space in which the problem lies. However, calculating epistasis may be challenging as it requires all solutions to be searched.

Epistasis: obstacle or advantage for mapping complex traits? [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
Identification of genetic loci in complex traits has focused largely on one-dimensional genome scans to search for associations between single markers and the phenotype.

Epistasis-driven identification of SLC25A51 as a regulator of human mitochondrial NAD import

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
About a thousand genes in the human genome encode for membrane transporters. Among these, several solute carrier proteins (SLCs), representing the largest group of transporters, are still orphan and lack functional characterization.

Mechanistic causes of sign epistasis and its applications

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics
Mapping genetic variations to phenotypic variations poses a significant challenge, as mutations often combine unexpectedly, diverging from assumed additive effects even in the same environment.
