Human subtelomeric copy number variations.
Copy number variation is a defining characteristic of human subtelomeres. Human subtelomeric segmental duplication regions ('Subtelomeric Repeats') comprise about 25% of the most distal 500 kb and 80% of the most distal 100 kb in human DNA. Huge allelic disparities seen in subtelomeric DNA sequence content and organization are postulated to have an impact on the dosage of transcripts embedded w...
متن کاملNew Copy Number Variations in Schizophrenia
Genome-wide screenings for copy number variations (CNVs) in patients with schizophrenia have demonstrated the presence of several CNVs that increase the risk of developing the disease and a growing number of large rare CNVs; the contribution of these rare CNVs to schizophrenia remains unknown. Using Affymetrix 6.0 arrays, we undertook a systematic search for CNVs in 172 patients with schizophre...
متن کاملCopy number variations in neurodevelopmental disorders.
Common neurodevelopmental disorders (including autism, speech and language delay, schizophrenia, epilepsy and intellectual disability) have complex aetiology, which is predominantly genomic, but also environmental in origin. They share a paradox, in that high heritability is matched by lowered fecundity, placing them under negative genetic selection. This implicates variants of recent origin, s...
متن کاملGene copy number and cell cycle arrest.
The cell cycle is an orderly sequence of events which ultimately lead to the division of a single cell into two daughter cells. In the case of DNA damage by radiation or chemicals, the damage checkpoints in the G1 and G2 phases of the cell cycle are activated. This results in an arrest of the cell cycle so that the DNA damage can be repaired. Once this is done, the cell continues with its usual...
متن کاملModeling genetic inheritance of copy number variations
Copy number variations (CNVs) are being used as genetic markers or functional candidates in gene-mapping studies. However, unlike single nucleotide polymorphism or microsatellite genotyping techniques, most CNV detection methods are limited to detecting total copy numbers, rather than copy number in each of the two homologous chromosomes. To address this issue, we developed a statistical framew...
