An integrated encyclopedia of DNA elements in the human genome

Ian Dunham, +442 more
TL;DR: The Encyclopedia of DNA Elements project provides new insights into the organization and regulation of the authors' genes and genome, and is an expansive resource of functional annotations for biomedical research.
Journal ArticleDOI

Next-generation genotype imputation service and methods.

Sayantan Das, +23 more
- 01 Oct 2016 - 
TL;DR: Improvements to imputation machinery are described that reduce computational requirements by more than an order of magnitude with no loss of accuracy in comparison to standard imputation tools.
Journal ArticleDOI

A reference panel of 64,976 haplotypes for genotype imputation

Shane A. McCarthy, +117 more
- 22 Aug 2016 - 
TL;DR: A reference panel of 64,976 human haplotypes at 39,235,157 SNPs constructed using whole-genome sequence data from 20 studies of predominantly European ancestry leads to accurate genotype imputation at minor allele frequencies as low as 0.1% and a large increase in the number of SNPs tested in association studies.
Journal ArticleDOI

The MicroArray Quality Control (MAQC) project shows inter- and intraplatform reproducibility of gene expression measurements

Leming Shi, +136 more
- 01 Sep 2006 - 
TL;DR: This study describes the experimental design and probe mapping efforts behind the MicroArray Quality Control project and shows intraplatform consistency across test sites as well as a high level of interplatform concordance in terms of genes identified as differentially expressed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Patterns and rates of exonic de novo mutations in autism spectrum disorders

Benjamin M. Neale, +68 more
- 04 Apr 2012 - 
TL;DR: Results from de novo events and a large parallel case–control study provide strong evidence in favour of CHD8 and KATNAL2 as genuine autism risk factors and support polygenic models in which spontaneous coding mutations in any of a large number of genes increases risk by 5- to 20-fold.
