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.
Journal ArticleDOI

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.

Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic susceptibility to occupational exposures

TL;DR: The value of wide scale genetic screening in occupational settings remains limited due to primarily ethical and social concerns, and large scale genetic screened in the workplace is not currently recommended.
Journal ArticleDOI

Autophagy as an important process in gut homeostasis and Crohn’s disease pathogenesis

TL;DR: This recent genome-wide association study specifically identified an associated SNP that encodes a non-synonymous amino acid change—an alanine to threonine substitution in exon 8 (also known as Ala197Thr)—in the human equivalent of the ATG16 gene.
Journal ArticleDOI

Confirmation of the association of the R620W polymorphism in the protein tyrosine phosphatase PTPN22 with type 1 diabetes in a family based study

TL;DR: In a hand-off method in a CDMA cellular system, whether afrequency in use is a frequency layer boundary is determined in response to a notification indicating a deterioration in the frequency in use from a mobile unit.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genomics of injury: the Glue Grant experience

TL;DR: Multiple technologies and knowledge bases including human genome sequence, microarrays, and human HapMaps became available beginning in the late-1990s and they represented dramatic scientific and technological advances that could provide a wonderful opportunity to systematically explore how the genome and proteome of the human body respond to serious, potentially lethal injuries.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pharmacogenomics: a systems approach

TL;DR: An overview of the development of pharmacogenetics‐pharmacogenomics is provided, the scientific advances that have contributed to the continuing evolution of this discipline, the incorporation of transcriptomic and metabolomic data into attempts to understand and predict variation in drug response phenotypes as well as challenges associated with the ‘translation’ of this important aspect of biomedical science into the clinic.
