Strong signature of natural selection within an FHIT intron implicated in prostate cancer risk [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Previously, a candidate gene linkage approach on brother pairs affected with prostate cancer identified a locus of prostate cancer susceptibility at D3S1234 within the fragile histidine triad gene (FHIT), a tumor suppressor that induces apoptosis ...

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 ...

Serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels and the risk of non-alcoholic fatty liver: A two-sample Mendelian randomization study

open access: yesThe Saudi Journal of Gastroenterology, 2023
Background: Accumulated studies have shown that low expression of 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] was significantly associated with the risk of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). However, the exact causality is still unknown.

Impact of a Single Nucleotide Polymorphism on the 3D Protein Structure and Ubiquitination Activity of E3 Ubiquitin Ligase Arkadia

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2022
Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are genetic variations which can play a vital role in the study of human health. SNP studies are often used to identify point mutations that are associated with diseases.

Genome-wide association mapping and genomic prediction for late blight and potato cyst nematode resistance in potato (Solanum tuberosum L.)

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2023
Potatoes are an important source of food for millions of people worldwide. Biotic stresses, notably late blight and potato cyst nematodes (PCN) pose a major threat to potato production worldwide, and knowledge of genes controlling these traits is limited.

Developing Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms for Identification of Cod Products by RAD-Seq

open access: yesAnimals, 2020
The increase in the rate of seafood fraud, particularly in the expensive fishes, forces us to verify the identity of marine products. Meanwhile, the definition of cod lacks consistency at the international level, as few standards and effective ...

Low-density genotype panel for both parentage verification and discovery in a multi-breed sheep population [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
peer-reviewedThe generally low usage of artificial insemination and single-sire mating in sheep, compounded by mob lambing (and lambing outdoors), implies that parentage assignment in sheep is challenging.
