Journal ArticleDOI

The evolution of vertebrate Toll-like receptors

TL;DR: The complete sequences of Takifugu Toll-like receptor (TLR) loci and gene predictions from many draft genomes enable comprehensive molecular phylogenetic analysis and shows that coincidental evolution plays a minor role in TLR evolution.
Journal ArticleDOI

Analysis of genetic inheritance in a family quartet by whole-genome sequencing

TL;DR: Family-based genome analysis enabled us to narrow the candidate genes for both of these Mendelian disorders to only four and demonstrate the value of complete genome sequencing in families.
Journal ArticleDOI

High functional diversity in Mycobacterium tuberculosis driven by genetic drift and human demography.

TL;DR: It is suggested that the current increases in human population, urbanization, and global travel, combined with the population genetic characteristics of M. tuberculosis described here, could contribute to the emergence and spread of drug-resistant tuberculosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The CLARITY Challenge provides a comprehensive assessment of current practices for using genome sequencing to diagnose and report genetic diseases and reveals a general convergence of practices on most elements of the analysis and interpretation process.
