Understanding genetic variants in context [PDF]

open access: yeseLife
Over the last three decades, human genetics has gone from dissecting high-penetrance Mendelian diseases to discovering the vast and complex genetic etiology of common human diseases.

Genetic variants associated with sepsis.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
BackgroundThe variable presentations and different phenotypes of sepsis suggest that risk of sepsis comes from many genes each having a small effect. The cumulative effect can be used to create individual risk profile.

Causal Genetic Variants in Stillbirth.

open access: yesObstetric Anesthesia Digest, 2020
BACKGROUND In the majority of cases, the cause of stillbirth remains unknown despite detailed clinical and laboratory evaluation. Approximately 10 to 20% of stillbirths are attributed to chromosomal abnormalities.

From Rare Genetic Variants to Polygenic Risk: Understanding the Genetic Basis of Cardiomyopathies [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease
Cardiomyopathies represent a heterogeneous group of myocardial disorders, traditionally classified by phenotype into hypertrophic, dilated, and arrhythmogenic.

Genetic variants in mRNA untranslated regions [PDF]

open access: yesWIREs RNA, 2018
Genome Wide Association Studies (GWAS) have mapped thousands of genetic variants associated with complex disease risk and regulating quantitative traits, thus exploiting an unprecedented high‐resolution genetic characterization of the human genome. A small fraction (3.7%) of the identified associations is located in untranslated regions (UTRs), and the

Genetic investigation of Nordic patients with complement-mediated kidney diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2023
BackgroundComplement activation in atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS), C3 glomerulonephropathy (C3G) and immune complex-mediated membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis (IC-MPGN) may be associated with rare genetic variants. Here we describe gene

A Boolean algebra for genetic variants

open access: yesBioinformatics, 2023
AbstractMotivationBeyond identifying genetic variants, we introduce a set of Boolean relations, which allows for a comprehensive classification of the relations of every pair of variants by taking all minimal alignments into account. We present an efficient algorithm to compute these relations, including a novel way of efficiently computing all minimal

A saturated map of common genetic variants associated with human height

open access: yesNature, 2022
Common single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are predicted to collectively explain 40–50% of phenotypic variation in human height, but identifying the specific variants and associated regions requires huge sample sizes1.

Genetic Variants of SARS-CoV-2-What Do They Mean?

open access: yesJournal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), 2021
Over the course of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic, the clinical, scientific, and public health communities have had to respond to new viral genetic variants. Each one has triggered a flurry of media attention, a
