Differential expression in RNA-seq: A matter of depth

TL;DR: This work analyzed how sequencing depth affects the detection of transcripts and their identification as differentially expressed, and proposed a novel approach--NOISeq--that differs from existing methods in that it is data-adaptive and nonparametric.

A high-resolution map of human evolutionary constraint using 29 mammals.

Kerstin Lindblad-Toh, +69 more
- 27 Oct 2011 - 
TL;DR: The comparison of related genomes has emerged as a powerful lens for genome interpretation and sequencing and comparative analysis of 29 eutherian genomes confirm that at least 5.5% of the human genome has undergone purifying selection, and locate constrained elements covering ∼4.2%" of the genome.

Iterative Usage of Fixed and Random Effect Models for Powerful and Efficient Genome-Wide Association Studies

TL;DR: A new method is named as Fixed and random model Circulating Probability Unification (FarmCPU) that improves statistical power compared to current methods and avoids model over-fitting problem in FEM.

Trimethylamine-N-Oxide, a Metabolite Associated with Atherosclerosis, Exhibits Complex Genetic and Dietary Regulation

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that two flavin mono-oxygenase family members, FMO1 and FMO3, oxidize trimethylamine (TMA), derived from gut flora metabolism of choline, to TMAO, and it is shown that F MO3 exhibits 10-fold higher specific activity than F MO1.

Integrative functional genomic analysis of human brain development and neuropsychiatric risks

TL;DR: The generation and analysis of a variety of genomic data modalities at the tissue and single-cell levels, including transcriptome, DNA methylation, and histone modifications across multiple brain regions ranging in age from embryonic development through adulthood, reveal insights into neurodevelopment and the genomic basis of neuropsychiatric risks.

The Sequence Alignment/Map format and SAMtools

TL;DR: SAMtools as discussed by the authors implements various utilities for post-processing alignments in the SAM format, such as indexing, variant caller and alignment viewer, and thus provides universal tools for processing read alignments.

Accurate whole human genome sequencing using reversible terminator chemistry

David R. Bentley, +201 more
- 06 Nov 2008 - 
TL;DR: An approach that generates several billion bases of accurate nucleotide sequence per experiment at low cost is reported, effective for accurate, rapid and economical whole-genome re-sequencing and many other biomedical applications.

Sequence Variations in PCSK9, Low LDL, and Protection against Coronary Heart Disease

TL;DR: It is indicated that moderate lifelong reduction in the plasma level of LDL cholesterol is associated with a substantial Reduction in the incidence of coronary events, even in populations with a high prevalence of non-lipid-related cardiovascular risk factors.
