Genomics02:02

Genomics

41.2K
Genomics is the science of genomes: it is the study of all the genetic material of an organism. In humans, the genome consists of information carried in 23 pairs of chromosomes in the nucleus, as well as mitochondrial DNA. In genomics, both coding and non-coding DNA is sequenced and analyzed. Genomics allows a better understanding of all living things, their evolution, and their diversity. It has a myriad of uses: for example, to build phylogenetic trees, to improve productivity and...

Genetic Screens02:46

Genetic Screens

5.8K
Genetic screens are tools used to identify genes and mutations responsible for phenotypes of interest. Genetic screens help identify individuals or a group of people at risk of developing  genetic diseases and help them with early intervention, targeted therapy, and reproductive options.
Forward genetic screens
Forward or “classical” genetic screens involve creating random mutations in an organism’s DNA using radiation, mutagens, or insertion of additional bases, which...

Epistasis Analysis01:09

Epistasis Analysis

6.0K
Although Mendel chose seven unrelated traits in peas to study gene segregation, most traits involve multiple gene interactions that create a spectrum of phenotypes. When the interaction of various genes or alleles at different locations influences a phenotype, this is called epistasis. Epistasis often involves one gene masking or interfering with the expression of another (antagonistic epistasis). Epistasis often occurs when different genes are part of the same biochemical pathway. The...

Genome Annotation and Assembly03:36

Genome Annotation and Assembly

21.3K
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.

Genome-wide Association Studies-GWAS01:11

Genome-wide Association Studies-GWAS

16.3K
Genome-wide association studies or GWAS are used to identify whether common SNPs are associated with certain diseases. Suppose specific SNPs are more frequently observed in individuals with a particular disease than those without the disease. In that case, those SNPs are said to be associated with the disease. Chi-square analysis is performed to check the probability of the allele likely to be associated with the disease.
GWAS does not require the identification of the target gene involved in...

Area of Science:

  • Genomics
  • Statistical Genetics
  • Bioinformatics

Background:

  • The Genetic Analysis Workshops (GAW) foster the development and comparison of statistical genetic methods.
  • GAW19 focused on analyzing human genomic and transcriptomic data.
  • The workshop utilizes specific datasets for method application and evaluation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the data distributed for GAW19.
  • To facilitate the analysis of human genomic and transcriptomic data.
  • To support the development and testing of statistical genetic methods.

Main Methods:

  • GAW19 data included whole genome and exome sequences, gene expression, and blood pressure measures from two Mexican American samples.
  • Simulated phenotypes were generated based on real sequence data, focusing on additive genetic models and genotype-by-medication interactions.
  • Data expansion from GAW18 included gene expression and exome sequence data for unrelated individuals.

Main Results:

  • A total of 245 'functional' genes were identified in simulations.
  • A few genes had large effects, while most explained less than 1% of trait variation.
  • An additional phenotype (Q1) was simulated to be correlated among related individuals but not associated with sequence variants.

Conclusions:

  • The GAW19 dataset provides a rich resource for studying genetic and transcriptomic influences on complex traits.
  • The simulated phenotypes allow for rigorous testing of statistical genetic methods.
  • The data facilitate the exploration of genetic architecture underlying blood pressure variation.
