Joint Haplotype Assembly and Genotype Calling via Sequential Monte Carlo Algorithm [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Genetic variations predispose individuals to hereditary diseases, play important role in the development of complex diseases, and impact drug metabolism. The full information about the DNA variations in the genome of an individual is given by haplotypes,

Genetic Deconvolution of Embryonic and Maternal Cell‐Free DNA in Spent Culture Medium of Human Preimplantation Embryo Through Deep Learning

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
DECENT is a deep learning method that enhances noninvasive preimplantation genetic testing by accurately reconstructing embryonic copy number variations (CNVs) from cell‐free DNA in spent embryo culture media. By mitigating maternal contamination, DECENT improves diagnostic accuracy, even with high contamination levels, offering a reliable, noninvasive

Genome-Wide Association Study and Subsequent Exclusion of ATCAY as a Candidate Gene Involved in Equine Neuroaxonal Dystrophy Using Two Animal Models. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Equine neuroaxonal dystrophy/equine degenerative myeloencephalopathy (eNAD/EDM) is an inherited neurodegenerative disorder of unknown etiology. Clinical signs of neurological deficits develop within the first year of life in vitamin E (vitE) deficient ...

An Allele of Glutamate Formiminotransferase Triggers 5‐Methyl‐Tetrahydrofolate‐to‐MeFox Conversion and Facilitates Folate Biofortification in Maize

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This work demonstrates the distinct roles of the glutamate formiminotransferase (GFT) enzyme in plants. The GFT triggers the conversion of 5‐methyl‐tetrahydrofolate to MeFox in plants, a process distinct from its role as a formiminotransferase in mammals.

The Development of Quality Control Genotyping Approaches: A Case Study Using Elite Maize Lines. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Quality control (QC) of germplasm identity and purity is a critical component of breeding and conservation activities. SNP genotyping technologies and increased availability of markers provide the opportunity to employ genotyping as a low-cost and robust

Genetic correlates of longevity and selected age-related phenotypes: a genome-wide association study in the Framingham Study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
BACKGROUND: Family studies and heritability estimates provide evidence for a genetic contribution to variation in the human life span. METHODS:We conducted a genome wide association study (Affymetrix 100K SNP GeneChip) for longevity-related traits in a ...

Transcriptome‐Wide Association Uncovers LncRNAs Controlling Seed Weight in Soybean

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study employs transcriptome‐wide association studies (TWAS) to identify 201 long non‐coding RNAs (lncRNAs) associated with seed weight. Expression quantitative trait locus (eQTL) analysis reveals dynamic and static regulatory variants controlling lncRNA expression across development.

Improved Imputation of Common and Uncommon Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) with a New Reference Set [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Statistical imputation of genotype data is an important technique for analysis of genome-wide association studies (GWAS). We have built a reference dataset to improve imputation accuracy for studies of individuals of primarily European descent using ...

Identifying Myeloid‐Derived Suppressor Cells and Lipocalin‐2 as Therapeutic Targets for Intervertebral Disc Degeneration

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Inflammatory dysregulation drives intervertebral disc degeneration via stage‐dependent immune cellular dynamics. Single‐cell transcriptomics and genetic risk mapping revealed a shift from LCN2high myeloid‐derived suppressor cells maintaining disc repair in early stages to IL1B+ macrophage‐dominated pathology in advanced disease.

Diagnosis of adult-type hypolactasia/lactase persistence: genotyping of single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP C/T-13910) is not consistent with breath test in Colombian Caribbean population

open access: yesArquivos de Gastroenterologia, 2012
CONTEXT: Genotyping of single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP C/T-13910) located upstream of the lactase gene is used to determine adult-type hypolactasia/lactase persistence in North-European Caucasian subjects.
