Journal ArticleDOI

Global transcriptional responses of fission yeast to environmental stress

TL;DR: Transcriptional responses of the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe to various environmental stresses were explored and promoter motifs associated with some of the groups of coregulated genes were identified.
Journal ArticleDOI

Periodic gene expression program of the fission yeast cell cycle

TL;DR: The genome-wide transcriptional program of the Schizosaccharomyces pombe cell cycle was studied in this paper, identifying 407 periodically expressed genes of which 136 show high-amplitude changes.
Journal ArticleDOI

The African Genome Variation Project shapes medical genetics in Africa

TL;DR: It is shown that modern imputation panels (sets of reference genotypes from which unobserved or missing genotypes in study sets can be inferred) can identify association signals at highly differentiated loci across populations in sub-Saharan Africa.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-wide and fine-resolution association analysis of malaria in West Africa

Muminatou Jallow, +90 more
- 01 Jun 2009 - 
TL;DR: These findings provide proof of principle that fine-resolution multipoint imputation, based on population-specific sequencing data, can substantially boost authentic GWA signals and enable fine mapping of causal variants in African populations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Resistance to malaria through structural variation of red blood cell invasion receptors

TL;DR: A complex CNV called DUP4 is associated with resistance to severe malaria and fully explains the previously reported signal of association, and a systematic catalog of CNVs is provided, describing structural diversity that may have functional importance at this locus.
