CEACAM6 gene variants in inflammatory bowel disease. [PDF]
The carcinoembryonic antigen-related cell adhesion molecule 6 (CEACAM6) acts as a receptor for adherent-invasive E. coli (AIEC) and its ileal expression is increased in patients with Crohn's disease (CD). Given its contribution to the pathogenesis of CD,

Background: Gene fusions occur when two independent genes form a hybrid gene through genomic rearrangements, which often leads to abnormal expression and function of an encoded protein.

Structural variants in the bovine genome
Genome and environment together greatly influence how an organism develops and functions. Cattle is a livestock species with high economic significance; thus, deciphering how its genome and genomic information relates to its phenotype is crucial ...

How Important Are Structural Variants for Speciation?
Understanding the genetic basis of reproductive isolation is a central issue in the study of speciation. Structural variants (SVs); that is, structural changes in DNA, including inversions, translocations, insertions, deletions, and duplications, are ...

TRPV1 splice variants: structure and function [PDF]
The capsaicin receptor (TRPV1) is a non-selective cation channel predominantly expressed in specialized sensory neurons that detect painful stimuli. Although its many functional roles continue to be revealed, it has been confirmed to play a critical role in the perception of peripheral inflammatory hyperalgesia and pain.

Comparison of statistical tests for association between rare variants and binary traits. [PDF]
Genome-wide association studies have found thousands of common genetic variants associated with a wide variety of diseases and other complex traits. However, a large portion of the predicted genetic contribution to many traits remains unknown.

Comprehensive analysis of structural variants in chickens using PacBio sequencing
Structural variants (SVs) are one of the main sources of genetic variants and have a greater impact on phenotype evolution, disease susceptibility, and environmental adaptations than single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). However, SVs remain challenging

Structural Characterization of Histone H2A Variants [PDF]
protein to form chromatin, the fundamental unit of which is the nucleosome core particle (NCP). An NCP consists of two copies each of the four core histones H2A, H2B, H3, and H4. This histone octamer binds 147 base pairs of DNA around its outer surface in 1.65 tight superhelical turns (Fig. 1A) (Luger et al. 1997; Richmond and Davey 2003).
