The prognostic impact of germline 46/1 haplotype of Janus kinase 2 in cytogenetically normal acute myeloid leukemia.

TL;DR: Janus kinase 2 46/1 haplotype influences morphological distribution, increasing the predisposition towards an acute myelomonocytoid form, and may be a novel, independent unfavorable risk factor in acuteMyeloid leukemia with a normal karyotype.
Journal ArticleDOI

Eliminating the improbable: Sherlock Holmes and standards of evidence in the genomic age.

TL;DR: A collection of heterogeneous results tell us about genetic association studies in general and genetic variation in the estrogen receptor in particular; and how can the authors use this understanding to improve their ability to understand, treat, and prevent cardiovascular disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Survival is associated with genetic variation in inflammatory pathway genes among patients with resected and unresected pancreatic cancer.

TL;DR: SNPs in the inflammatory pathway genes MAPK8IP1 and SOCS3 were associated with increased overall survival in patients undergoing potentially curative resection and may be used in the future as markers to predict survival.
Journal ArticleDOI

Thrombomodulin Gene Polymorphisms and Haplotypes and the Risk of Cardiovascular Events: A Prospective Follow-Up Study

TL;DR: Results from this prospective, population-based study suggest that common allelic variants of the thrombomodulin gene may not significantly contribute to the risk of cardiovascular events at the population level.

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.
