A genome-wide search for risk genes using homozygosity mapping and microarrays with 1,494 single-nucleotide polymorphisms in 22 eastern Cuban families with bipolar disorder [PDF]
Homozygosity mapping is a very powerful method for finding rare recessive disease genes in monogenic disorders and may also be useful for locating risk genes in complex disorders, late onset disorders where parents often are not available, and for rare ...

Mapping of psoralen cross-linked nucleotides in RNA [PDF]
A method is described for using the cross-linking reagent 4'-(hydroxy-methyl)-4,5',8-trimethylpsoralen (HMT) to map base paired regions and higher-order structure within RNA molecules. Applying this method to yeast tRNAPhe, we have specifically identified cross-links within the acceptor stem between U6 X U68, in the D-stem between C11 X C25, and in the

Mapping of Complex Traits by Single-Nucleotide Polymorphisms [PDF]
Molecular geneticists are developing the third-generation human genome map with single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), which can be assayed via chip-based microarrays. One use of these SNP markers is the ability to locate loci that may be responsible for complex traits, via linkage/linkage-disequilibrium analysis.

Local Binary Patterns as a Feature Descriptor in Alignment-free Visualisation of Metagenomic Data [PDF]
Shotgun sequencing has facilitated the analysis of complex microbial communities. However, clustering and visualising these communities without prior taxonomic information is a major challenge.

Identification of potential small molecule binding pockets on Rho family GTPases. [PDF]
Rho GTPases are conformational switches that control a wide variety of signaling pathways critical for eukaryotic cell development and proliferation. They represent attractive targets for drug design as their aberrant function and deregulated activity is

Single Nucleotide Polymorphism Identification, Characterization, and Linkage Mapping in Quinoa
Quinoa ( Willd.) is an important seed crop throughout the Andean region of South America. It is important as a regional food security crop for millions of impoverished rural inhabitants of the Andean Altiplano (high plains).
