Genome-wide SNP discovery in associating with human diseases phenotypes

TL;DR: This SNP map and SNP profile helps to locate the genes that involve some complex diseases like diabetes, vascular diseases, and mental disorders and to describe individual variation in response to treatment as well as finding a drug target in pharmacogenomics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Anesthesia and pharmacogenetics.

TL;DR: Some basic findings of the HGP are reviewed and using the problem of pseudocholinesterase deficiency as a model will explore the issues involved in establishing a functional link between genetic variance and drug response.

Inherited Risk Enrichment Analysis ofgene sets using Genome-wide AssociationStudies for Coronary Artery Disease

TL;DR: Genetic riskenrichment analysis is a fairly simple and straightforward method to determine to what extent a group of functionally associated genetic variants/genes are enriched for a given CCD.
Journal ArticleDOI

Le financement de la haute technologie dans le système de santé : le cas de la pharmacogénomique

TL;DR: In this article, Caulfield et ses collaborateurs evaluated the pertinence of l’investissement public dans la mise sur pied d'un test genetique, soit lacceptabilite, lutilite, the non-malfaisance and the presence of a benefice clair.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Towards a Highly Scalable Hybrid Metaheuristic for Haplotype Inference Under Parsimony

TL;DR: This paper presents and discusses an approach based on hybridization of two meta-heuristics, one being a population based learning algorithm and the other a local search that achieves an improvement on solution quality with respect to the application of a single 'pure' algorithm.

A haplotype map of the human genome

John W. Belmont, +232 more
TL;DR: A public database of common variation in the human genome: more than one million single nucleotide polymorphisms for which accurate and complete genotypes have been obtained in 269 DNA samples from four populations, including ten 500-kilobase regions in which essentially all information about common DNA variation has been extracted.
Journal ArticleDOI

A second generation human haplotype map of over 3.1 million SNPs

Kelly A. Frazer, +237 more
- 18 Oct 2007 - 
TL;DR: The Phase II HapMap is described, which characterizes over 3.1 million human single nucleotide polymorphisms genotyped in 270 individuals from four geographically diverse populations and includes 25–35% of common SNP variation in the populations surveyed, and increased differentiation at non-synonymous, compared to synonymous, SNPs is demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI

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.

ABySS: A parallel assembler for short read sequence data

TL;DR: ABySS (Assembly By Short Sequences), a parallelized sequence assembler, was developed and assembled 3.5 billion paired-end reads from the genome of an African male publicly released by Illumina, Inc, representing 68% of the reference human genome.

Genome sequence, comparative analysis and haplotype structure of the domestic dog

Kerstin Lindblad-Toh, +241 more
- 08 Dec 2005 - 
TL;DR: A high-quality draft genome sequence of the domestic dog is reported, together with a dense map of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) across breeds, to shed light on the structure and evolution of genomes and genes.
