Harnessing γ-TMT Genetic Variations and Haplotypes for Vitamin E Diversity in the Korean Rice Collection

open access: yesAntioxidants
Gamma-tocopherol methyltransferase (γ-TMT), a key gene in the vitamin E biosynthesis pathway, significantly influences the accumulation of tocochromanols, thereby determining rice nutritional quality.

Identifying Common Disease Trajectories of Progressive Supranuclear Palsy with Electronic Health Records

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) is a rare neurodegenerative disorder characterized by parkinsonism and impairments in balance, language, and cognition. As an atypical parkinsonism, PSP progresses rapidly, lacks effective treatments, and poses significant caregiving burdens. While prior studies have identified risk factors, they

Genetic Risk Factors in Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus: What We Know and What Is Next

open access: yesMovement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Knowledge of the genetic factors in normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH) is rapidly evolving, with significant advances in recent years. We conducted a systematic review examining genetic contributions to NPH risk. Ovid Embase, Ovid Medline, Web of Science, and Cochrane Central were searched from inception through October 14, 2024, for human ...

Identification of GGC Repeat Expansions in ZFHX3 among Chilean Movement Disorder Patients

open access: yesMovement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Hereditary ataxias are genetically diverse, yet up to 75% remain undiagnosed due to technological and financial barriers. The GGC repeat expansion in ZFHX3, responsible for spinocerebellar ataxia type 4 (SCA4), has only been described in individuals of Northern Europeandescent.

Improved haplotyping of rare variants using next-generation sequence data [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2012
Accurate identification of haplotypes in sequenced human genomes can provide invaluable information about population demography and fine-scale correlations along the genome, thus empowering both population genomic and medical association studies. Yet phasing unrelated individuals remains a challenging problem.

Population genomic analyses reveal extensive genomic regions within selective sweeps associated with adaptation and demographic history of a wheat fungal pathogen

open access: yesNew Plant Protection, EarlyView.
Applying population genomics, this study revealed that Pst exhibits slower linkage disequilibrium decay compared to rust fungi with known sexual reproduction, identified extensive hard and soft sweeps linked to Pst adaptation, and demonstrated that crop domestication and breeding programs have significantly influenced pathogen population sizes ...
