From metagenomics to the metagenome: Conceptual change and the rhetoric of translational genomic research [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
As the international genomic research community moves from the tool-making efforts of the Human Genome Project into biomedical applications of those tools, new metaphors are being suggested as useful to understanding how our genes work – and for ...

Phenotypic variance explained by local ancestry in admixed African Americans

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2015
We surveyed 26 quantitative traits and disease outcomes to understand the proportion of phenotypic variance explained by local ancestry in admixed African Americans. After inferring local ancestry as the number of African-ancestry chromosomes at hundreds

Plasmodium knowlesi Genome Sequences from Clinical Isolates Reveal Extensive Genomic Dimorphism. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Plasmodium knowlesi is a newly described zoonosis that causes malaria in the human population that can be severe and fatal. The study of P. knowlesi parasites from human clinical isolates is relatively new and, in order to obtain maximum information from

Unified theory of human genome reveals a constrained spatial chromosomal arrangement in interphase nuclei [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We investigate a densely packed, non-random arrangement of forty-six chromosomes (46,XY) in human nuclei. Here, we model systems-level chromosomal crosstalk by unifying intrinsic parameters (chromosomal length and number of genes) across all pairs of ...

Functional analysis and transcriptional output of the Göttingen minipig genome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In the past decade the Göttingen minipig has gained increasing recognition as animal model in pharmaceutical and safety research because it recapitulates many aspects of human physiology and metabolism.

Genetic perturbation of PU.1 binding and chromatin looping at neutrophil enhancers associates with autoimmune disease

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
PU.1 is a master regulator of myeloid development but its role in disease-relevant neutrophils is not well known. Here, the authors look at primary neutrophils from a human population and find that genetic variants affecting binding of PU.1 are ...

Expressing the human genome [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2001
We have searched the human genome for genes encoding new proteins that may be involved in three nuclear gene expression processes: transcription, pre-messenger RNA splicing and polyadenylation. A plethora of potential new factors are implicated by sequence in nuclear gene expression, revealing a substantial but selective increase in complexity compared

Comparative genomic analyses reveal a lack of a substantial signature of host adaptation in Rhodococcus equi (‘Prescottella equi’) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Rhodococcus equi (‘Prescottella equi’) is a pathogenic actinomycete primarily infecting horses but has emerged as an opportunistic human pathogen. We have sequenced the genome of the type strain of this species, R.

Genetic variants associated with Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome

open access: yesPlatelets, 2020
Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome (HPS) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by defective biogenesis of lysosome-related organelles. Clinical manifestations include a bleeding diathesis due to a platelet delta storage pool deficiency ...
