Genetic Imprinting: Conflict at the Callipyge Locus [PDF]
Current Biology, 2005 The imprinted Dlk1-Gtl2 region of the mammalian genome - which in sheep encompasses the Callipyge locus, known for its unusual mode of inheritance - encodes a number of maternally expressed miRNAs. Five of these miRNAs, hosted by the antisense transcript antiPeg11, have now been shown to target degradation of the paternally expressed Peg11 mRNA by an ...

Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2022 Alzheimer’s disease (AD) genetics studies have identified a coding variant within ABI3 gene that increases the risk of developing AD. Recently, we demonstrated that deletion of the Abi3 gene locus dramatically exacerbates AD neuropathology in a ...

iScience, 2019 Summary: We combined CAGE sequencing in human adipocytes during differentiation with data from genome-wide association studies to identify an enhancer in the SNX10 locus on chromosome 7, presumably involved in body fat distribution. Using reporter assays

An X-STRs analysis of the Iraqi Sorani Kurds.
PLoS ONE, 2023 A database for the Iraqi Sorani Kurds, specifically focused on the 12 X-short tandem repeat (STR) loci, has been developed to fascilitate forensic and population genetics investigations.

Horticulturae, 2022 Null alleles are alleles that are recessive to codominant markers without any effect on the phenotype. In SSR assays, there are several reasons for the lack of amplification at a locus: the primer does not bind well, longer fragments do not amplify due ...

Genetic Analysis of Mitochondrial Sorting from the MSC3 Mosaic Mutant of Cucumber
Journal of the American Society for Horticultural Science, 2021 Cucumber (Cucumis sativus) plants regenerated from cell cultures occasionally possess mosaic (MSC) phenotypes on cotyledons and leaves. Lines MSC3 and MSC16 have distinct MSC phenotypes and originated from plants regenerated from different cell-culture ...

Genetic diversity at the HUMTHO1 locus
Annals of Human Biology, 1998 A World-wide population genetic study on the highly polymorphic DNA locus HUMTHO1, was performed using data collected from 48 studies. Also this study reports new allele frequency data of a Punjabi population (n = 125) from North India. This population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium with 77.6% heterozygosity and power of exclusion at 0.538.

Adaptive topographies and equilibrium selection in an evolutionary game. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 It has long been known in the field of population genetics that adaptive topographies, in which population equilibria maximise mean population fitness for a trait regardless of its genetic bases, do not exist.

Mutation analysis of 21 autosomal short tandem repeats in Han population from Hunan, China
Annals of Human Biology, 2019 Background: Short tandem repeats (STRs) are powerful genetic markers widely used in human genetics. Population data and locus-specific mutation rates of STRs are crucial for the evaluation and interpretation of genetic evidence in forensic and population

Journal of Lipid Research, 2012 A higher incidence of coronary artery disease is associated with a lower level of HDL-cholesterol. We searched for genetic loci influencing HDL-cholesterol in F2 mice from a cross between MRL/MpJ and SM/J mice.
