A linear-time algorithm for reconstructing zero-recombinant haplotype configuration on a pedigree

BMC Bioinformatics, 2012
Background When studying genetic diseases in which genetic variations are passed on to offspring, the ability to distinguish between paternal and maternal alleles is essential. Determining haplotypes from genotype data is called haplotype inference. Most

Calcineurin‐Dependent Stress Adaptation Enables Caspofungin Heteroresistance Leading to Stable Resistance in Candida Glabrata

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Caspofungin heteroresistance is prevalent in clinical Candida glabrata isolates and depends on calcineurin‐mediated stress adaptation. This transient phenotype serves as a reservoir for resistance evolution, enabling the emergence of stable resistant descendants under prolonged drug pressure.

An Efficient Detection Platform Based on Mesoporous Au@Cr2O3 Particles with Schwarz P Surface for Precise Periodontitis Metabolite Profiling

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A non‐invasive periodontitis diagnosis platform was developed using Au nanoparticles‐decorated mesoporous Cr2O3 (Au@mCr2O3) particles with Schwarz P surface as matrix for saliva metabolic fingerprinting (SMFs) analysis via MALDI‐MS. With the assistance of machine learning of SMFs, this platform enables efficient diagnosis and the screening of potential

Large‐scale Whole‐Exome Sequencing Defines the Protein‐Coding Architecture of Retinal Structure, Visual Function, and Major Blinding Diseases

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Large‐scale whole‐exome sequencing in 356,982 UK Biobank participants defines the protein‐coding architecture of retinal structure, visual function, and major blinding diseases. Pleiotropic genes, including CFI, C3, and RIOX1, bridge multiple retinal phenotypes, while experimental validation of FYB2 implicates RPE barrier dysfunction, providing ...

A miR-1207-5p binding site polymorphism abolishes regulation of HBEGF and is associated with disease severity in CFHR5 nephropathy.

PLoS ONE, 2012
Heparin binding epidermal growth factor (HBEGF) is expressed in podocytes and was shown to play a role in glomerular physiology. MicroRNA binding sites on the 3'UTR of HBEGF were predicted using miRWalk algorithm and followed by DNA sequencing in 103 ...

Gap‐Free Information Transfer in 4D‐STEM via Fusion of Complementary Scattering Channels

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Fused Full‐Field STEM (FF‐STEM) is introduced as a 4D‐STEM imaging modality that combines direct ptychography with tilt‐corrected dark‐field reconstruction in a single acquisition. Fourier‐space fusion using Wiener‐type spectral weighting closes the low‐frequency contrast gap inherent to bright‐field methods, delivering gap‐free, dose‐efficient, near ...

Oligogenic analysis across broad phenotypes of 46,XY differences in sex development associated with NR5A1/SF-1 variants: findings from the international SF1next studyResearch in context

EBioMedicine
Summary: Background: Oligogenic inheritance has been suggested as a possible mechanism to explain the broad phenotype observed in individuals with differences of sex development (DSD) harbouring NR5A1/SF-1 variants.

Phylogenetic identification of lateral genetic transfer events

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2006
Background Lateral genetic transfer can lead to disagreements among phylogenetic trees comprising sequences from the same set of taxa. Where topological discordance is thought to have arisen through genetic transfer events, tree comparisons can be used ...
