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 ...

Joint analysis of SNP and gene expression data in genetic association studies of complex diseases [PDF]
Genetic association studies have been a popular approach for assessing the association between common Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) and complex diseases.

G × EBLUP: A novel method for exploring genotype by environment interactions and genomic prediction
Genotype by environment (G × E) interaction is fundamental in the biology of complex traits and diseases. However, most of the existing methods for genomic prediction tend to ignore G × E interaction (GEI).

Multiple breast cancer risk variants are associated with differential transcript isoform expression in tumors. [PDF]
Genome-wide association studies have identified over 70 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with breast cancer. A subset of these SNPs are associated with quantitative expression of nearby genes, but the functional effects of the majority ...

Single nucleotide polymorphisms from Theobroma cacao expressed sequence tags associated with witches' broom disease in cacao [PDF]
In order to increase the efficiency of cacao tree resistance to witches¿ broom disease, which is caused by Moniliophthora perniciosa (Tricholomataceae), we looked for molecular markers that could help in the selection of resistant cacao genotypes.

SNPsyn: detection and exploration of SNP–SNP interactions [PDF]
SNPsyn (http://snpsyn.biolab.si) is an interactive software tool for the discovery of synergistic pairs of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) from large genome-wide case-control association studies (GWAS) data on complex diseases. Synergy among SNPs is estimated using an information-theoretic approach called interaction analysis.

Accurate Genomic Prediction Of Human Height [PDF]
We construct genomic predictors for heritable and extremely complex human quantitative traits (height, heel bone density, and educational attainment) using modern methods in high dimensional statistics (i.e., machine learning).

Genetic variants in ELOVL2 and HSD17B12 predict melanoma‐specific survival [PDF]
Fatty acids play a key role in cellular bioenergetics, membrane biosynthesis and intracellular signaling processes and thus may be involved in cancer development and progression.
