Visualizing the geography of genetic variants [PDF]

open access: yesBioinformatics, 2016
Abstract Summary One of the key characteristics of any genetic variant is its geographic distribution. The geographic distribution can shed light on where an allele first arose, what populations it has spread to, and in turn on how migration, genetic drift, and natural selection have acted.

Causal Genetic Variants in Stillbirth

open access: yesObstetric Anesthesia Digest, 2020
(N Engl J Med. 2020;383:1107–1116) Between 25% and 60% of stillbirth cases are unexplained. Exome sequencing has been used to determine the cause of disease, especially in childhood disorders and fetal structural anomalies. There is an opportunity to further apply clinical exome sequencing to investigating the cause of stillbirth.

In silico identification of variations in microRNAs with a potential impact on dairy traits using whole ruminant genome SNP datasets

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
MicroRNAs are small noncoding RNAs that have important roles in the lactation process and milk biosynthesis. Some polymorphisms have been studied in various livestock species from the perspective of pathology or production traits. To target variants that

DisVar: an R library for identifying variants associated with diseases using large-scale personal genetic information [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2023
Background Genetic variants may potentially play a contributing factor in the development of diseases. Several genetic disease databases are used in medical research and diagnosis but the web applications used to search these databases for disease ...

Rare Variants of Putative Candidate Genes Associated With Sporadic Meniere's Disease in East Asian Population [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Objectives: The cause of Meniere's disease (MD) is unclear but likely involves genetic and environmental factors. The aim of this study was to investigate the genetic basis underlying MD by screening putative candidate genes for MD.

Genomic Diversity Evaluation of Populus trichocarpa Germplasm for Rare Variant Genetic Association Studies

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2020
Genome-wide association studies are powerful tools to elucidate the genome-to-phenome relationship. In order to explain most of the observed heritability of a phenotypic trait, a sufficient number of individuals and a large set of genetic variants must ...

Reanalysis and reclassification of rare genetic variants associated with inherited arrhythmogenic syndromes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Background: Accurate interpretation of rare genetic variants is a challenge for clinical translation. Updates in recommendations for rare variant classification require the reanalysis and reclassification.

Genetic Determinants of Circulating Sphingolipid Concentrations in European Populations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Sphingolipids have essential roles as structural components of cell membranes and in cell signalling, and disruption of their metabolism causes several diseases, with diverse neurological, psychiatric, and metabolic consequences.

Unified representation of genetic variants [PDF]

open access: yesBioinformatics, 2015
Abstract Summary: A genetic variant can be represented in the Variant Call Format (VCF) in multiple different ways. Inconsistent representation of variants between variant callers and analyses will magnify discrepancies between them and complicate variant filtering and duplicate removal.

Accurate interpretation of genetic variants in sudden unexpected death in infancy by trio-targeted gene-sequencing panel analysis

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
In sudden unexpected death in infancy cases, postmortem genetic analysis with next-generation sequencing potentially can extract candidate genes associated with sudden death.
