Direct detection of null alleles in SNP genotyping data

Direct detection of null alleles in SNP genotyping data.

Pinpointing genetic associations in the human genome relies heavily on the accuracy of the underlying genotype data. Null alleles can generate significant inaccuracies in genotype data and can negatively affect the statistical power of a study. Existing quality control (QC) tests, including tests of Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, are not sensitive enough to detect the presence of even moderately f...

SNP genotyping with fluorescence polarization detection.

When a fluorescent molecule is excited by plane polarized light, the fluorescence emitted is also polarized. The degree of fluorescence polarization (FP) detected, under constant temperature and solvent viscosity, is proportional to the molecular weight of the dye molecule. By monitoring the FP of a fluorescent dye, one can detect significant changes in the molecular weight of the molecule with...

Detection of Natural Selection in Modern Human Populations on the basis of SNP Genotyping Data

Multiplex Detection and SNP Genotyping in a Single Fluorescence Channel

Probe-based PCR is widely used for SNP (single nucleotide polymorphism) genotyping and pathogen nucleic acid detection due to its simplicity, sensitivity and cost-effectiveness. However, the multiplex capability of hydrolysis probe-based PCR is normally limited to one target (pathogen or allele) per fluorescence channel. Current fluorescence PCR machines typically have 4-6 channels. We present ...

metrics for the detection of changed buildings in 3d old vector maps using als data (case study: isfahan city)

هدف از این تحقیق، ارزیابی و بهبود متریک های موجود جهت تایید صحت نقشه های قدیمی سه بعدی برداری با استفاده از ابر نقطه حاصل از لیزر اسکن جدید شهر اصفهان می باشد . بنابراین ابر نقطه حاصل از لیزر اسکنر با چگالی حدودا سه نقطه در هر متر مربع جهت شناسایی عوارض تغییر کرده در نقشه های قدیمی سه بعدی استفاده شده است. تمرکز ما در این تحقیق بر روی ساختمان به عنوان یکی از اصلی ترین عارضه های شهری می باشد. من...
