Genome-wide Association Studies-GWAS

15.2K
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...

Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms-SNPs

17.8K
A single nucleotide polymorphism or SNP is a single nucleotide variation at a specific genomic position in a large population. It is the most prevalent type of sequence variation found in the human genome. Point mutations that occur in more than 1% of the population qualify as SNPs. These are present once every 1000 nucleotides on an average in the human genome. Replacement of a purine with another purine (A/G) or a pyrimidine with another pyrimidine (C/T) is known as a transition. In contrast,...

Comparing Copy Number Variations and SNPs

18.5K
Sequencing of the human genome has opened up several best-kept secrets of the genome. Scientists have identified thousands of genome variations that exist within a population. These variations can be a single nucleotide or a larger chromosomal variation.
Copy number variations or CNVs are the structural variations that cover more than 1kb of DNA sequence. The single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), on the other hand, is a single nucleotide change or a point mutation that is found in more than 1%...

Area of Science:

  • Genetics
  • Bioinformatics
  • Statistical Genomics

Background:

  • Detecting rare variants in genome-wide association studies (GWAS) is challenging due to complex gene compositions like haplotypes.
  • Existing single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) set approaches have not been extensively applied to haplotype analysis.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a novel SNP-set method (RAINBOW) for haplotype-based GWAS without requiring prior haplotype information.
  • To evaluate RAINBOW's performance against conventional GWAS methods in detecting causal variants.

Main Methods:

  • Developed the RAINBOW method, treating haplotype blocks as SNP-sets for integrated analysis.
  • Applied RAINBOW to simulated and real genotype data of Oryza sativa subsp. indica.
  • Compared RAINBOW with single-SNP GWAS, conventional haplotype-based GWAS, and conventional SNP-set GWAS.

Main Results:

  • RAINBOW demonstrated superior control of false positives compared to other methods.
  • The method effectively detected causal variants independent of linkage disequilibrium when genotyped.
  • RAINBOW exhibited greater power, particularly in detecting closely located causal variants with opposing effects.

Conclusions:

  • RAINBOW enhances the detection of rare variants and complex genetic architectures, including multiple causal variants.
  • The SNP-set approach integrated with haplotype analysis offers a powerful tool for genetic discovery.
  • The RAINBOWR R package is available for public use.
