Genome-wide Association Studies-GWAS

14.1K
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...

Advancements in molecular biology have revolutionized the identification and characterization of bacteria, with multiple methods leveraging DNA sequencing for enhanced precision. As sequencing technologies improve and costs decline, these approaches are increasingly used in clinical, environmental, and evolutionary studies.Multilocus Sequence Typing (MLST) examines several housekeeping genes, essential chromosomal genes encoding cellular functions, to distinguish strains. Approximately...

Genetic Screens

5.0K
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...

DNA Microarrays02:34

DNA Microarrays

18.3K
Microarrays are high-throughput and relatively inexpensive assays that can be automated to analyze large quantities of data at a time. They are used in genome-wide studies to compare gene or protein expression under two varied conditions, such as healthy and diseased states. Microarrays consist of glass or silica slides on which probe molecules are covalently attached through surface functionalization. Most commonly, the slides are prepared through the chemisorption of silanes to silica...

Area of Science:

  • Genomics
  • Medical Genetics
  • Diagnostic Technologies

Background:

  • Genotyping arrays are widely used for genetic research but not typically for medical diagnostics.
  • The Illumina Global Screening Array is a standard tool with potential for clinical applications.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the diagnostic utility of a standard genotyping array for diverse medical indications.
  • To assess analytical performance, ethical-legal considerations, and cost-effectiveness.

Main Methods:

  • Testing specific variants in 10 genes.
  • First-tier screening for 10 autosomal recessive metabolic diseases.
  • Diagnostic workup for familial breast/ovarian cancer and hypercholesterolemia.

Main Results:

  • High analytical sensitivity and specificity for array-based variant detection.
  • Identified specific pitfalls requiring attention in array analyses.
  • Demonstrated excellent cost and time efficiency for diagnostic array analyses.

Conclusions:

  • Genotyping arrays show significant diagnostic value across various indications.
  • Ethical-legal frameworks, including consent, require specific software solutions.
  • Array optimization is necessary for full clinical integration, though some applications are already implemented.
