Overview of DNA Repair

33.9K
In order to be passed through generations, genomic DNA must be undamaged and error-free. However, every day, DNA in a cell undergoes several thousand to a million damaging events by natural causes and external factors. Ionizing radiation such as UV rays, free radicals produced during cellular respiration, and hydrolytic damage from metabolic reactions can alter the structure of DNA. Damages caused include single-base alteration, base dimerization, chain breaks, and cross-linkage.

Ecological Niches

All organisms have a position within an ecosystem. The complete set of living and nonliving factors—including food resources, climate, and terrain—that define the position of a given organism are collectively referred to as the organism’s ecological niche.

Polygenic Traits01:18

Polygenic Traits

69.2K
When more than one gene is responsible for a given phenotype, the trait is considered polygenic. Human height is a polygenic trait. Studies have uncovered hundreds of loci that influence height, and there are believed to be many more. Due to the high number of genes involved, as well as environmental and nutritional factors, height varies significantly within a given population. The distribution of height forms a bell-shaped curve, with relatively few individuals in the population at the...

The Anchoring-and-Adjustment Heuristic

7.8K
In order to make good decisions, we use our knowledge and our reasoning. Often, this knowledge and reasoning is sound and solid. However, sometimes, we are swayed by biases or by others manipulating a situation. For example, let’s say you and three friends wanted to rent a house and had a combined target budget of $1,600. The realtor shows you only very run-down houses for $1,600 and then shows you a very nice house for $2,000. Might you ask each person to pay more in rent to get the...

Spreading of Chromatin Modifications02:25

Spreading of Chromatin Modifications

9.5K
The histone proteins in the nucleosomes are post-translationally modified (PTM) to increase or decrease access to DNA. The commonly observed PTMs are methylation, acetylation, phosphorylation, and ubiquitination of lysine amino acids in the histone H3 tail region. These histone modifications have specific meaning for the cell. Hence, they are called "histone code". The protein complex involved in histone modification is termed as "reader-writer" complex.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Informatics
  • Bioinformatics
  • Health Services Research

Background:

  • The German Center for Lung Research (DZL) is a network researching respiratory diseases.
  • Participating sites have heterogeneous data due to varying software, coding systems, and data field coverage.
  • A uniform conceptual structure for common data elements is needed for consortium-wide queries.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a broadly accepted and complete ontology for DZL common data elements.
  • To create a platform for collaborative metadata management to address data heterogeneity.
  • To enable meaningful consortium-wide queries through a single interface.

Main Methods:

  • Developed a platform for collaborative metadata management using RDF and Git.
  • Formulated detailed requirements for the metadata repository and editing interfaces.
  • Created a software system for automatic metadata publishing after validation.

Main Results:

  • Established a uniform conceptual structure for DZL common data elements.
  • Implemented a collaborative metadata management platform.
  • Enabled automated and validated metadata publishing.

Conclusions:

  • The developed platform provides a solution for harmonizing heterogeneous data in a research network.
  • Standard technologies like RDF and Git facilitate the creation of a comprehensive and usable ontology.
  • This approach supports unified data analysis and research across multiple study sites.
