Mendelian randomization with fine-mapped genetic data: choosing from large numbers of correlated instrumental variables [PDF]
arXiv, 2017 Mendelian randomization uses genetic variants to make causal inferences about the effect of a risk factor on an outcome. With fine-mapped genetic data, there may be hundreds of genetic variants in a single gene region any of which could be used to assess this causal relationship.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Glutaredoxin (Grx) 3 proteins contain a thioredoxin domain and one to three class II Grx domains. These proteins play a crucial role in iron homeostasis in eukaryotic cells. In human Grx3, at least one of the two Grx domains, together with the thioredoxin domain, is essential for its function in iron metabolism.

Wavelet-based genetic association analysis of functional phenotypes arising from high-throughput sequencing assays [PDF]
arXiv, 2013 Understanding how genetic variants influence cellular-level processes is an important step towards understanding how they influence important organismal-level traits, or "phenotypes", including human disease susceptibility. To this end scientists are undertaking large-scale genetic association studies that aim to identify genetic variants associated ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Dimeric pyruvate formate‐lyase cleaves pyruvate using a radical‐based mechanism. G734 serves as a radical storage location, and the radical is transferred to the catalytic C419 residue. Mutation of the C418‐C419 pair causes loss of enzyme activity, but does not impede radical introduction onto G734. Therefore, cis‐ but not trans‐radical transfer occurs

Validation in Genetic Association Studies [PDF]
Briefings in Bioinformatics, 2011 Validation of genetic associations is understood to be a cornerstone for the scientific credibility of the results. To approach this topic, the general concept of genetic association studies is introduced briefly, followed by how the term 'validation' is used in the context of genetic association studies.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.To explore the impact of the overexpression of the multidrug‐transporter P‐glycoprotein (ABCB1) on membrane fluidity, we compared the transversal gradient of mobility and microviscosity in plasma membranes of drug‐sensitive Chinese hamster ovary cells (AuxB1) and their multidrug‐resistant derivatives (B30) using the fluorescent n‐(9‐anthroyloxy) fatty ...

A Pattern Discovery-Based Method for Detecting Multi-Locus Genetic Association [PDF]
arXiv, 2007 Methods to effectively detect multi-locus genetic association are becoming increasingly relevant in the genetic dissection of complex trait in humans. Current approaches typically consider a limited number of hypotheses, most of which are related to the effect of a single locus or of a relatively small number of neighboring loci on a chromosomal region.
