Rare variant aggregation in 148,508 exomes identifies genes associated with proxy dementia

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Proxy phenotypes allow for the utilization of genetic data from large population cohorts to analyze late-onset diseases by using parental diagnoses as a proxy for genetic disease risk. Proxy phenotypes based on parental diagnosis status have been used in

Genome-wide gene-environment interactions in neuroticism: an exploratory study across 25 environments

open access: yesTranslational Psychiatry, 2021
Gene-environment interactions (GxE) are often suggested to play an important role in the aetiology of psychiatric phenotypes, yet so far, only a handful of genome-wide environment interaction studies (GWEIS) of psychiatric phenotypes have been conducted.

Genome-wide association study of cerebellar volume provides insights into heritable mechanisms underlying brain development and mental health

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2022
A genome-wide association study on MRI cerebellar volume in the UK Biobank cohort identifies 30 loci with genome-wide significance that might be relevant to brain structure and cognitive function.

On the Fourier transform of a quantitative trait: Implications for compressive sensing [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Theoretical Biology, Vol. 540, Year 2022, Article ID 110985, ISSN 0022-5193, 2021
This paper explores the genotype-phenotype relationship. It outlines conditions under which the dependence of a quantitative trait on the genome might be predictable, based on measurement of a limited subset of genotypes. It uses the theory of real-valued Boolean functions in a systematic way to translate trait data into the Fourier domain.

Prompt- and Trait Relation-aware Cross-prompt Essay Trait Scoring [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Automated essay scoring (AES) aims to score essays written for a given prompt, which defines the writing topic. Most existing AES systems assume to grade essays of the same prompt as used in training and assign only a holistic score. However, such settings conflict with real-education situations; pre-graded essays for a particular prompt are lacking ...

Genome-wide meta-analysis of brain volume identifies genomic loci and genes shared with intelligence

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Brain volume and intelligence have been previously found to have shared genetic etiology, but the specific common genetic signals have not been identified.

Genome editing in maize directed by CRISPR–Cas9 ribonucleoprotein complexes

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
Genome editing in plants typically requires the expression of Cas9 and guide RNA from stably transformed plasmid DNA. Here, the authors show that successful editing can be achieved after delivery of the Cas9-guide RNA complex as a ribonucleoprotein to ...
