Genetic studies of body mass index yield new insights for obesity biology

Nature, 2015
Obesity is heritable and predisposes to many diseases. To understand the genetic basis of obesity better, here we conduct a genome-wide association study and Metabochip meta-analysis of body mass index (BMI), a measure commonly used to define obesity and

A general framework for estimating the relative pathogenicity of human genetic variants

Nature Genetics, 2014
Current methods for annotating and interpreting human genetic variation tend to exploit a single information type (for example, conservation) and/or are restricted in scope (for example, to missense changes).

Genetic ties and genetic mixups [PDF]

Journal of Medical Ethics, 2003
In a recent case in Great Britain, a couple described as “white” underwent in vitro fertilisation and gave birth to twins described as “black”. In the sense of a fair adjudication of this particular case, serving justice requires a thick description and a sensitive understanding of the relevant facts.

Genetics of Azoospermia [PDF]

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021
Azoospermia affects 1% of men, and it can be due to: (i) hypothalamic-pituitary dysfunction, (ii) primary quantitative spermatogenic disturbances, (iii) urogenital duct obstruction. Known genetic factors contribute to all these categories, and genetic testing is part of the routine diagnostic workup of azoospermic men.

ANNOVAR: functional annotation of genetic variants from high-throughput sequencing data

Nucleic Acids Research, 2010
High-throughput sequencing platforms are generating massive amounts of genetic variation data for diverse genomes, but it remains a challenge to pinpoint a small subset of functionally important variants.

Congenital solitary kidney in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease: Where do known genes end and the unknown begin?

Clinical Case Reports, 2023
Key Clinical Message We present the case of a 41‐year‐old man patient diagnosed with solitary left kidney with few cysts. He has a family history of unilateral renal agenesis (URA) but no for autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD).

Functional mapping and annotation of genetic associations with FUMA

Nature Communications, 2017
A main challenge in genome-wide association studies (GWAS) is to pinpoint possible causal variants. Results from GWAS typically do not directly translate into causal variants because the majority of hits are in non-coding or intergenic regions, and the ...

Music and Genetics

Neuroscience & Biobehavioral Reviews, 2023
The first part of this review provides a brief historical background of behavior genetic research and how twin and genotype data can be utilized to study genetic influences on individual differences in human behavior. We then review the field of music genetics, from its emergence to large scale twin studies and the recent, first molecular genetic ...

Biological Insights From 108 Schizophrenia-Associated Genetic Loci

Nature, 2014
Schizophrenia is a highly heritable disorder. Genetic risk is conferred by a large number of alleles, including common alleles of small effect that might be detected by genome-wide association studies.
