Using Ontology Fingerprints to evaluate genome-wide association study results [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We describe an approach to characterize genes or phenotypes via ontology fingerprints which are composed of Gene Ontology (GO) terms overrepresented among those PubMed abstracts linked to the genes or phenotypes. We then quantify the biological relevance

Genome- and epigenome-wide association studies identify susceptibility of CpG sites and regions for metabolic syndrome in a Korean population

open access: yesClinical Epigenetics
Background While multiple studies have investigated the relationship between metabolic syndrome (MetS) and its related traits (fasting glucose, triglyceride, HDL cholesterol, blood pressure, waist circumference) and DNA methylation, our understanding of ...

Genome-Wide Association Study of Hepatitis in Korean Populations [PDF]

open access: yesGenomics & Informatics, 2014
Hepatitis is a common and serious disease for the Korean population. It is caused by a virus, the A and B types of which are plentiful in Koreans. In this study, we tried to find genetic factors for hepatitis through genome-wide association studies.

Genomic partitioning of growth traits using a high-density single nucleotide polymorphism array in Hanwoo (Korean cattle) [PDF]

open access: yesAsian-Australasian Journal of Animal Sciences, 2020
Objective The objective of this study was to characterize the number of loci affecting growth traits and the distribution of single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) effects on growth traits, and to understand the genetic architecture for growth traits in ...

Genetic differences according to onset age and lung function in asthma: A cluster analysis

open access: yesClinical and Translational Allergy, 2023
Background The extent of differences between genetic risks associated with various asthma subtypes is still unknown. To better understand the heterogeneity of asthma, we employed an unsupervised method to identify genetic variants specifically associated

A genome-wide association study on meat consumption in a Japanese population: the Japan Multi-Institutional Collaborative Cohort study

open access: yesJournal of Nutritional Science, 2021
Recent genome-wide association studies (GWAS) on the dietary habits of the Japanese population have shown that an effect rs671 allele was inversely associated with fish consumption, whereas it was directly associated with coffee consumption.
