TL;DR: In extensively phenotyped cohorts, insights from sequencing whole genomes or exomes of nearly 10,000 individuals from population-based and disease collections are described and population structure and functional annotation of rare and low-frequency variants are described.
Abstract: The contribution of rare and low-frequency variants to human traits is largely unexplored. Here we describe insights from sequencing whole genomes (low read depth, 7×) or exomes (high read depth, 80×) of nearly 10,000 individuals from population-based and disease collections. In extensively phenotyped cohorts we characterize over 24 million novel sequence variants, generate a highly accurate imputation reference panel and identify novel alleles associated with levels of triglycerides (APOB), adiponectin (ADIPOQ) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDLR and RGAG1) from single-marker and rare variant aggregation tests. We describe population structure and functional annotation of rare and low-frequency variants, use the data to estimate the benefits of sequencing for association studies, and summarize lessons from disease-specific collections. Finally, we make available an extensive resource, including individual-level genetic and phenotypic data and web-based tools to facilitate the exploration of association results.

TL;DR: A family of proteins that through a shared sequence regulate cap-dependent translation are described, which affects such processes as cell growth, development, oncogenic transformation and perhaps even axon pathfinding and memory consolidation.
Abstract: Eukaryotic messenger RNAs contain a modified guanosine, termed a cap, at their 5' ends. Translation of mRNAs requires the binding of an initiation factor, eIF4E, to the cap structure. Here, we describe a family of proteins that through a shared sequence regulate cap-dependent translation. The biological importance of this translational regulation is immense, and affects such processes as cell growth, development, oncogenic transformation and perhaps even axon pathfinding and memory consolidation.

TL;DR: For people choosing to start pharmacological prophylaxis, reduction in both LDL cholesterol and hsCRP are indicators of successful treatment with rosuvastatin, and these reductions were predictive of event rates irrespective of the lipid endpoint used.
