Multiple Testing for SNP-SNP Interactions [PDF]
Most genetic diseases are complex, i.e. associated to combinations of SNPs rather than individual SNPs. In the last few years, this topic has often been addressed in terms of SNP-SNP interaction patterns given as expressions linked by logical operators.

SNP-Flankplus: SNP ID-centric retrieval for SNP flanking sequences [PDF]
The flanking sequences provided by dbSNP of NCBI are usually short and fixed length without further extension, thus making the design of appropriate PCR primers difficult. Here, we introduce a tool named "SNP-Flankplus" to provide a web environment for retrieval of SNP flanking sequences from both the dbSNP and the nucleotide databases of NCBI. Two SNP

SNP-VISTA: An interactive SNP visualization tool [PDF]
Abstract Background Recent advances in sequencing technologies promise to provide a better understanding of the genetics of human disease as well as the evolution of microbial populations. Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) are established genetic markers that aid in the identification of loci affecting quantitative ...

SNP-SNP interactions in breast cancer susceptibility [PDF]
AbstractBackgroundBreast cancer predisposition genes identified to date (e.g., BRCA1 and BRCA2) are responsible for less than 5% of all breast cancer cases. Many studies have shown that the cancer risks associated with individual commonly occurring single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are incremental.

SNP-PHAGE – High throughput SNP discovery pipeline [PDF]
AbstractBackgroundSingle nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) as defined here are single base sequence changes or short insertion/deletions between or within individuals of a given species. As a result of their abundance and the availability of high throughput analysis technologies SNP markers have begun to replace other traditional markers such as ...

Genetic Variation in FADS Genes and Plasma Cholesterol Levels in 2-Year-Old Infants [PDF]
Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in genes involved in fatty acid metabolism (FADS1 FADS2 gene cluster) are associated with plasma lipid levels. We aimed to investigate whether these associations are already present early in life and compare the ...

Relationship of FTO gene variations with NAFLD risk in Chinese men
Fat mass and obesity-associated (FTO) gene is an obesity susceptibility gene and its relationship with the nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) remains unclear.

Fusarium verticillioides, which causes ear, kernel and stem rots, has been reported as the most prevalent species on maize worldwide. Kernel infection by F. verticillioides results in reduced seed yield and quality as well as fumonisin contamination, and

A genetic variation map for chicken with 2.8 million single-nucleotide polymorphisms [PDF]
We describe a genetic variation map for the chicken genome containing 2.8 million single-nucleotide polymorphisms ( SNPs). This map is based on a comparison of the sequences of three domestic chicken breeds ( a broiler, a layer and a Chinese silkie) with
