Evolutionary Relationships through Genome Comparisons

7.3K
Genome comparison is one of the excellent ways to interpret the evolutionary relationships between organisms. The basic principle of genome comparison is that if two species share a common feature, it is likely encoded by the DNA sequence conserved between both species. The advent of genome sequencing technologies in the late 20th century enabled scientists to understand the concept of conservation of domains between species and helped them to deduce evolutionary relationships across diverse...

Sequence Networks of Rotating Machines

538
A Y-connected synchronous generator, grounded through a neutral impedance, is designed to produce balanced internal phase voltages with only positive-sequence components. The generator's sequence networks include a source voltage that is exclusively in the positive-sequence network. The sequence components of line-to-ground voltages at the generator terminals illustrate this configuration.
Zero-sequence current induces a voltage drop across the generator's neutral impedance and other...

Genome Annotation and Assembly

22.0K
The genome refers to all of the genetic material in an organism. It can range from a few million base pairs in microbial cells to several billion base pairs in many eukaryotic organisms. Genome assembly refers to the process of taking the DNA sequencing data and putting it all back together in a correct order to create a close representation of the original genome. This is followed by the identification of functional elements on the newly assembled genome, a process called genome annotation.

Structure of a Gene

16.9K
A gene is the fundamental unit of heredity. Every individual has two copies of each gene, one inherited from each parent. Although most people contain the same genes, there is a small fraction that is slightly different amongst people. A gene with a small difference in its sequence of DNA bases forms different alleles, contributing to different phenotypes.
However, only 1% of the DNA is composed of genes that encode proteins; the rest, 99% is non-coding DNA. This non-coding DNA performs...

Phylogenetic Trees

52.0K
Phylogenetic trees come in many forms. It matters in which sequence the organisms are arranged from the bottom to the top of the tree, but the branches can rotate at their nodes without altering the information. The lines connecting individual nodes can be straight, angled, or even curved.

Area of Science:

  • Genomics
  • Systems Biology
  • Bioinformatics

Background:

  • Gene expression data is crucial for understanding organism function, but correlation-based networks may not accurately represent gene regulation.
  • Genetical genomics, integrating gene expression with genetic markers, enhances understanding of gene regulation.
  • Existing methods often estimate undirected networks, yet gene expression is typically driven by directed regulations.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a method for estimating the Markov equivalence class of directed acyclic graphs (DAGs) in a genetical genomics framework.
  • To improve the accuracy of gene regulatory network estimation by incorporating genetic markers as covariates.
  • To identify differential gene regulatory networks between disease cases and controls.

Main Methods:

  • Introduced a covariate-adjusted Gaussian graphical model for DAG estimation.
  • Developed a two-stage estimation procedure using penalized regression for coefficient matrix estimation.
  • Employed the PC-algorithm on estimated mean values for regulatory network inference.

Main Results:

  • Established estimation consistency for high-dimensional sparse DAGs.
  • Demonstrated method performance through simulations.
  • Identified differential DAGs in a human Alzheimer's disease dataset, distinguishing cases from controls.

Conclusions:

  • The covariate-adjusted Gaussian graphical model provides a robust framework for estimating directed gene regulatory networks within genetical genomics.
  • The method effectively leverages genetic marker data to enhance network inference accuracy.
  • Application to Alzheimer's disease data highlights the potential for discovering disease-specific regulatory patterns.
