Allele-specific gene expression uncovered.
Genetic variation in populations can result in variation in levels of gene expression but the extent to which this occurs has been unclear. In this article, recent studies of allele-specific expression among autosomal non-imprinted genes are reviewed. These new data provide evidence that differential expression is relatively common and that allelic differences are heritable and can be highly co...
متن کاملAllelic imbalance assays to quantify allele-specific gene expression and transcription factor binding.
A growing number of noncoding variants are found to influence the susceptibility to common diseases and interindividual variation in drug response. However, the mechanisms by which noncoding variation affects cellular and clinical phenotypes remain to be elucidated. Allele-specific assays allow testing directly the differential properties of the alleles at a regulatory variant, which are detect...
متن کاملSNP-specific array-based allele-specific expression analysis.
We have developed an optimized array-based approach for customizable allele-specific gene expression (ASE) analysis. The central features of the approach are the ability to select SNPs at will for detection, and the absence of need to PCR amplify the target. A surprisingly long probe length (39-49 nt) was needed for allelic discrimination. Reconstitution experiments demonstrate linearity of ASE...
متن کاملIntegrative Analysis of Hereditary Nonpolyposis Colorectal Cancer: the Contribution of Allele-Specific Expression and Other Assays to Diagnostic Algorithms
The identification of germline variants predisposing to hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC) is crucial for clinical management of carriers, but several probands remain negative for such variants or bear variants of uncertain significance (VUS). Here we describe the results of integrative molecular analyses in 132 HNPCC patients providing evidences for improved genetic testing of H...
متن کاملAllele-specific gene expression in a wild nonhuman primate population.
Natural populations hold enormous potential for evolutionary genetic studies, especially when phenotypic, genetic and environmental data are all available on the same individuals. However, untangling the genotype-phenotype relationship in natural populations remains a major challenge. Here, we describe results of an investigation of one class of phenotype, allele-specific gene expression (ASGE)...
