Haplotype inference with boolean satisfiability

TL;DR: Results confirm that SHIPs is currently the most effective approach for the HIPP problem, being several orders of magnitude faster than existing integer linear programming and branch and bound solutions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quantitative autistic trait measurements index background genetic risk for ASD in Hispanic families

TL;DR: The occurrence of preferential mating for QATs—the magnitude of which may vary across cultures—constitutes a mechanism by which background genetic liability for ASD can accumulate in a given family in successive generations.
Journal ArticleDOI

From genotypes to haplotypes in hepatobiliary diseases: One plus one equals (sometimes) more than two

TL;DR: Examples indicate that not only genes regulating innate and acquired immune functions play a role in the pathogenesis of PBC and PSC, but that the systematic identification of additional genes modulating disease susceptibility and/or progression can be awaited.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mining the Genome for Susceptibility to Diabetic Nephropathy: The Role of Large-Scale Studies and Consortia

TL;DR: This review has focused on linkage analyses of candidate genes or chromosomal regions, or coarse genome-wide scans, which have mapped either categorical kidney disease or end-stage renal disease or quantitative kidney traits (albuminuria/proteinuria or glomerular filtration rate).
Journal ArticleDOI

Association between CYP19A1 polymorphisms and sex hormones in postmenopausal Japanese women

TL;DR: In this paper, the impact of CYP19A1 polymorphisms on serum sex hormone levels in the Japanese population has been investigated, and it was found that subjects with BMI>or=25 kg/m(2) showed a significant difference in circulating testosterone levels (0.29+/-0.19, P=0.050).

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.
Journal ArticleDOI

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.
