HDAC9 is implicated in atherosclerotic aortic calcification and affects vascular smooth muscle cell phenotype. [PDF]

, 2019
Aortic calcification is an important independent predictor of future cardiovascular events. We performed a genome-wide association meta-analysis to determine SNPs associated with the extent of abdominal aortic calcification (n = 9,417) or descending ...

INFERRING GENOME-WIDE MOSAIC STRUCTURE [PDF]

Biocomputing 2009, 2008
Genetic recombination plays two essential biological roles. It ensures the fidelity of the transmission of genetic information from one generation to the next and it generates new combinations of genetic variants. Therefore, recombination is a critical process in shaping arrangement of polymorphisms within populations.

A large multi-ethnic genome-wide association study identifies novel genetic loci for intraocular pressure. [PDF]

, 2017
Elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) is a major risk factor for glaucoma, a leading cause of blindness. IOP heritability has been estimated to up to 67%, and to date only 11 IOP loci have been reported, accounting for 1.5% of IOP variability.

Genome-wide Association Studies

, 2013
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) are a powerful hypothesis-free tool for the dissection of susceptibility to common heritable human diseases, including osteoporosis. To date, more than 10,000 loci for common human diseases and traits have been identified by GWAS; and it is hard to think of a methodological breakthrough in recent times that has ...

Genome-Wide Variation in Betacoronaviruses

Journal of Virology, 2021
Natural infection with SARS-CoV-2 and vaccines triggers the formation of antibodies against the S glycoprotein, which are detected by antibody-based diagnostic tests. Our analysis showed that variation in the S glycoprotein is a general feature of all species in the genus Betacoronavirus , including three species ...

Common variation near ROBO2 is associated with expressive vocabulary in infancy [PDF]

, 2014
Twin studies suggest that expressive vocabulary at ~24 months is modestly heritable. However, the genes influencing this early linguistic phenotype are unknown. Here we conduct a genome-wide screen and follow-up study of expressive vocabulary in toddlers

Genome wide association study of frost tolerance in wheat

Scientific Reports, 2022
Winter wheat growing areas in the Northern hemisphere are regularly exposed to heavy frost. Due to the negative impact on yield, the identification of genetic factors controlling frost tolerance (FroT) and development of tools for breeding is of prime ...

Improvement of experimental testing and network training conditions with genome-wide microarrays for more accurate predictions of drug gene targets [PDF]

, 2014
BACKGROUND: Genome-wide microarrays have been useful for predicting chemical-genetic interactions at the gene level. However, interpreting genome-wide microarray results can be overwhelming due to the vast output of gene expression data combined with off-

Profiling genome-wide DNA methylation [PDF]

Epigenetics & Chromatin, 2016
DNA methylation is an epigenetic modification that plays an important role in regulating gene expression and therefore a broad range of biological processes and diseases. DNA methylation is tissue-specific, dynamic, sequence-context-dependent and trans-generationally heritable, and these complex patterns of methylation highlight the significance of ...

Robust Gene-Gene Interaction Analysis in Genome Wide Association Studies. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have successfully discovered hundreds of associations between genetic variants and complex traits. Most GWAS have focused on the identification of single variants.
