概括
在非人类物种中产生准确的遗传变异调用是很困难的. 一种新的方法,TrioTrain,使用牛基因组训练DeepVariant,显著减少各种物种的遗传错误,并提高变体调用精度.
科学领域:
- 基因组学就是基因组学.
- 生物信息学是一种生物信息学.
- 进行比较基因组学.
背景情况:
- 变异调用工具经常假定人类基因组特征,限制了它们在不同物种中的有效性.
- DeepVariant (DV) 是一种强大的变异调用器,但其与非人类基因组的性能尚未完全理解.
- 全面算法的开发需要评估它们对不同物种的影响.
研究的目的:
- 评估人类训练的变异呼叫器,包括具有等位基因频率的DeepVariant (DV-AF) 和DeepTrio (DT) 在牛基因组上的表现.
- 开发和验证一种新的方法,TrioTrain,用于将DV扩展到缺乏既定参考资源的二倍体物种,如瓶中的基因组 (GIAB).
- 创建第一个多种训练的DV-AF检查站,使用牛三组.
主要方法:
- 该TrioTrain方法通过使用区域混策略来自动化双胞胎物种的DV扩展,以克服基于SLURM的集群限制.
- 在为准确的后代基因定型培训DV之前,动物真相标签被策划,以排除孟德尔的不一致位置.
- 牛三组 (牛,雅克,野牛) 用于生成一个多种训练的DV-AF检查点.
主要成果:
- 一个经过多种类训练的DV-AF检查站在GIAB基准测试中获得了SNV F1平均得分>0.990,尽管对重复区域的牛真相集存在限制.
- 一个由牛训练的DV检查点 (检查点28) 将孟德尔遗传错误 (MIE) 率降低了50%,与HG002进行测试时的人类训练的默认DV相比.
- 检查点28显示,在三种牛跨物种交叉基因组中,平均MIE率为0.03%.
结论:
- 一个多种类的三人培训策略有效地减少了单样变异调用中的遗传错误.
- 纯粹由人类训练的模型阻碍了基于深度学习的变体调用新物种的应用.
- 牛类动物的多样性祖先凸显了为非人类物种量身定制的先进比较基因组学工具的需求.

Improving Translational Accuracy
11.9K
Base complementarity between the three base pairs of mRNA codon and the tRNA anticodon is not a failsafe mechanism. Inaccuracies can range from a single mismatch to no correct base pairing at all. The free energy difference between the correct and nearly correct base pairs can be as small as 3 kcal/ mol. With complementarity being the only proofreading step, the estimated error frequency would be one wrong amino acid in every 100 amino acids incorporated. However, error frequencies observed in...

Generalization, Discrimination, and Extinction
826
Generalization, discrimination, and extinction are key concepts in operant conditioning that influence how behaviors are learned and maintained.
Generalization occurs when a behavior reinforced in one context is performed in similar situations. For instance, a student who studies diligently for calculus and receives excellent grades might apply the same study habits to psychology and history, expecting similar results. Generalization shows how learning in one setting can influence behavior in...

Trihybrid Crosses
Some of Mendel’s crosses examined three pairs of contrasting characteristics. Such a cross is called a trihybrid cross. A trihybrid cross is a combination of three individual monohybrid crosses. For example, plant height (tall vs. short), seed shape (round vs. wrinkled), and seed color (yellow vs. green).
The F1 generation plants of a trihybrid cross are heterozygous for all three traits and produce eight gametes. Upon self-fertilization, these gametes have an equal...

Genetic Variation
405
Genetic variation is the diversity in DNA sequences found among individuals of the same species. This diversity is crucial for a species' survival because it helps organisms adapt to environmental changes. Genetic variation begins with fertilization, where an egg and sperm cell merge. Each of these cells carries 23 chromosomes, up to 46 in the fertilized egg. Chromosomes are long DNA strands that contain genes, the basic units of heredity.
Genes exist in different versions called alleles,...

Animal Mitochondrial Genetics
8.1K
Among all the organelles in an animal cell, only mitochondria have their own independent genomes. Animal mitochondrial DNA is a double-stranded, closed-circular molecule with around 20,000 base pairs. Mitochondrial DNA is unique in that one of its two strands, the heavy, or H, -strand is guanine rich, whereas the complementary strand is cytosine rich and called the light, or L, -strand. Compared to nuclear DNA, mitochondrial DNA has a very low percentage of non-coding regions and is marked by...
