Indexing Effects of Copy Number Variation on Genes Involved in Developmental Delay
A challenge in clinical genomics is to predict whether copy number variation (CNV) affecting a gene or multiple genes will manifest as disease. Increasing recognition of gene dosage effects in neurodevelopmental disorders prompted us to develop a computational approach based on critical-exon (highly expressed in brain, highly conserved) examination for potential etiologic effects. Using a large...
متن کاملBIRC5 Genomic Copy Number Variation in Early-Onset Breast Cancer
Background: Baculoviral inhibitor of apoptosis repeat-containing 5 (BIRC5) gene is an inhibitor of apoptosis that expresses in human embryonic tissues but it is absent in most healthy adult tissues. The copy number of BIRC5 has been indicated to be highly increased in tumor tissues; however, its association with the age of onset in breast cancer is not well understood. Methods: Forty tumor tiss...
متن کاملA High-Resolution Map of Segmental DNA Copy Number Variation in the Mouse Genome
Submicroscopic (less than 2 Mb) segmental DNA copy number changes are a recently recognized source of genetic variability between individuals. The biological consequences of copy number variants (CNVs) are largely undefined. In some cases, CNVs that cause gene dosage effects have been implicated in phenotypic variation. CNVs have been detected in diverse species, including mice and humans. Publ...
متن کاملHigh-resolution assessment of copy number variation.
PCR revolutionized genetic analysis by enabling selective amplification of targeted sequences that, as a consequence of massive enrichment, could undergo genetic analysis by a variety of methodologies. The subsequent addition of a double-stranded DNA intercalating dye to the master mix was a key adaptation to PCR that allowed monitoring of amplification in real time, thus enabling quantificatio...
متن کاملThe Penetrance of Copy Number Variations for Schizophrenia and Developmental Delay
BACKGROUND Several recurrent copy number variants (CNVs) have been shown to increase the risk of developing schizophrenia (SCZ), developmental delay (DD), autism spectrum disorders (ASD), and various congenital malformations (CM). Their penetrance for SCZ has been estimated to be modest. However, comparisons between their penetrance for SCZ or DD/ASD/CM, or estimates of the total penetrance for...
