Genomic basis for RNA alterations in cancer

TL;DR: The most comprehensive catalogue of cancer-associated gene alterations to date, obtained by characterizing tumour transcriptomes from 1,188 donors of the Pan-Cancer Analysis of Whole Genomes (PCAWG) Consortium of the International Cancer Genome Consortium (ICGC) and The Cancer Gome Atlas (TCGA) was presented in this article.
Journal ArticleDOI

Association of DISC1 with autism and Asperger syndrome.

TL;DR: The allelic diversity of the DISC1, DISC2 and TRAX genes, clustered in 1q42, in Finnish families ascertained for infantile autism and Asperger syndrome and the strongest associations were obtained with broad diagnostic categories for both disorders and with affected males only.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular and functional variation in iPSC-derived sensory neurons.

TL;DR: It is estimated that recall-by-genotype studies that use iPSC-derived cells will require cells from at least 20–80 individuals to detect the effects of regulatory variants with moderately large effect sizes, despite high differentiation-induced variability.
