FIGG: simulating populations of whole genome sequences for heterogeneous data analyses.

TL;DR: A large-scale whole genome simulation tool, FIGG, is developed, which generates large numbers of whole genomes with known sequence characteristics based on direct sampling of experimentally known or theorized variations, and iteratively mutates each genome separately.
Journal ArticleDOI

Association between Genetic Variants in DNA Double-Strand Break Repair Pathways and Risk of Radiation Therapy-Induced Pneumonitis and Esophagitis in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer.

TL;DR: The results support the notion that genetic variations within DSB repair pathway could influence the risk of developing toxicities following definitive RT in NSCLC.
Journal ArticleDOI

No association between the ryanodine receptor 3 gene and autism in a Japanese population

TL;DR: This is the first study, to the authors' knowledge, that has investigated the association between autism and the ryanodine receptor 3 (RyR3) gene, which is located in the region.
Journal Article

Genetic Variant rs4982958 at 14q11.2 Is Associated With Allergic Rhinitis in a Chinese Han Population Running title: 14q11.2 Is a Susceptibility Locus for Allergic Rhinitis

TL;DR: A novel susceptibility locus 14q11.2 for AR is identified that might bear candidate genes conferring susceptibility to AR and affecting disease phenotypes and the recessive model might provide the best fit.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification and prioritization of NUAK1 and PPP1CC as positional candidate loci for skeletal muscle strength phenotypes

TL;DR: In-depth analyses will be necessary to elucidate the exact role of ATP2A2, PPP1CC, and NUAK1 in muscle strength and to find out which functional polymorphisms are at the base of the interindividual strength differences.

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.
