Rare Copy Number Deletions Predict Individual Variation in Intelligence
Phenotypic variation in human intellectual functioning shows substantial heritability, as demonstrated by a long history of behavior genetic studies. Many recent molecular genetic studies have attempted to uncover specific genetic variations responsible for this heritability, but identified effects capture little variance and have proven difficult to replicate. The present study, motivated an i...
متن کاملCopy number profiles of paired primary and metastatic colorectal cancers
Liver metastasis is the major cause of death following a diagnosis of colorectal cancer (CRC). In this study, we compared the copy number profiles of paired primary and liver metastatic CRC to better understand how the genomic structure of primary CRC differs from the metastasis. Paired primary and metastatic tumors from 16 patients and their adjacent normal tissue samples were analyzed using s...
متن کاملPreprocessing and downstream analysis of microarray DNA copy number profiles
Analysis of DNA copy number profiles requires methods tailored to the specific nature of these data. The number of available data analysis methods has grown enormously in the last 5 years. We discuss the typical characteristics of DNA copy number data, as measured by microarray technology and review the extensive literature on preprocessing methods such as segmentation and calling. Subsequently...
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 کاملRegulatory element copy number differences shape primate expression profiles.
Gene expression differences are shaped by selective pressures and contribute to phenotypic differences between species. We identified 964 copy number differences (CNDs) of conserved sequences across three primate species and examined their potential effects on gene expression profiles. Samples with copy number different genes had significantly different expression than samples with neutral copy...
