Amplification ratio control system for copy number variation genotyping
We describe a generic design for ratiometric analysis suitable for determination of copy number variation (CNV) class of a gene. Following two initial sequence-specific PCR priming cycles, both ends of both amplicons (one test and one reference) in a duplex reaction, are all primed by the same universal primer (UP). Following each amplification denaturation step, the UP target and its reverse c...
متن کاملCopy number variation detection and genotyping from exome sequence data.
While exome sequencing is readily amenable to single-nucleotide variant discovery, the sparse and nonuniform nature of the exome capture reaction has hindered exome-based detection and characterization of genic copy number variation. We developed a novel method using singular value decomposition (SVD) normalization to discover rare genic copy number variants (CNVs) as well as genotype copy numb...
متن کاملCopy-number variation in control population cohorts.
Copy-number variation (CNV) is the most prevalent type of structural variation in the human genome, and contributes significantly to genetic heterogeneity. It has already been recognized that some CNVs can contribute to human phenotype, including rare genomic disorders and Mendelian diseases. Other CNVs are now amenable to genome-wide association studies so that their influence on human phenoty...
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 کاملDetermination of lipoprotein(a) kringle repeat number from genomic DNA: copy number variation genotyping using qPCR.
Plasma lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] concentration is related to risk of cardiovascular disease. The defining protein component of Lp(a) particles, apolipoprotein(a) [apo(a)], is encoded by the LPA gene. Apo(a) is extremely heterogeneous in size due to a common copy number variation, leading to a variable number of kringle-IV type 2 (KIV2)-like domains. Alleles with fewer KIV2 repeats, encoding smalle...
