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.

Cytokine Genes TNF, IL1A, IL1B, IL6, IL1RN and IL10, and Childhood-Onset Mood Disorders

TL;DR: This study finds no evidence for an association between childhood-onset mood disorders and any of the polymorphisms, either individually or as haplotypes, that support the involvement of the TNF, IL1A, IL 1B, IL6,IL1RN and IL10 variants as major genetic risk factors contributing to early-onsets mood disorders.
Journal ArticleDOI

Deciding whether follow-up studies have replicated findings in a preliminary large-scale omics study

TL;DR: A formal method to declare that findings from a primary study have been replicated in a follow-up study is proposed, appropriate for primary studies that involve large-scale searches for rare true positives (i.e., needles in a haystack).
Journal ArticleDOI

Association between the Casein Kinase 1 Epsilon Gene Region and Subjective Response to D-Amphetamine

TL;DR: Findings demonstrate the successful translation of pharmacogenetic results from mice to humans and demonstrate a leftward shift in the dose–response curve.
Journal ArticleDOI

Applicability of DNA pools on 500 K SNP microarrays for cost-effective initial screens in genomewide association studies

TL;DR: It is concluded that SNP-MaP can be extended for use on the Affymetrix GeneChip® Mapping 500 K Array, providing a cost-effective, reliable and valid initial screen of 500 K SNP microarrays in genomewide association scans.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic Variants in the Apolipoprotein(a) Gene and Coronary Heart Disease

TL;DR: Two independent single-nucleotide polymorphisms in the gene encoding apolipoprotein (a) ( LPA) have been shown to be associated with coronary heart disease (CHD) and lipoprotein(a) levels in Caucasians.
