Genome-wide association study of ancestry-specific TB risk in the South African Coloured population

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the genetic contribution to TB risk varies between continental populations, and the value of including admixed populations in studies of TB risk and other complex phenotypes is illustrated, and case-only admixture mapping is currently impractical in multi-way admixture populations due to spurious deviations in average local ancestry generated by current local ancestry inference methods.
Journal ArticleDOI

Computational/in silico methods in drug target and lead prediction.

TL;DR: An overview of various computational methods and tools applied in predicting or validating drug targets and drug-like molecules is presented and might guide researchers on selecting the most efficient approach or technique during the computational drug discovery process.
