Genotype transposer: automated genotype manipulation for linkage disequilibrium analysis
UNLABELLED The purpose of this work is to provide the modern molecular geneticist with tools to perform more efficient and more accurate analysis of the genotype data they produce. By using Microsoft Excel macros written in Visual Basic, we can translate genotype data into a form readable by the versatile software 'Arlequin', read the Arlequin output, calculate statistics of linkage disequilibr...
متن کاملConditional genotype analysis: detecting secondary disease loci in linkage disequilibrium with a primary disease locus
A number of autoimmune and other diseases have well established HLA associations; in many cases there is strong evidence for the direct involvement of the HLA class II peptide-presenting antigens, e.g., HLA DR-DQ for type 1 diabetes (T1D) and HLA-DR for rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The involvement of additional HLA region genes in the disease process is implicated in these diseases. We have devel...
متن کاملGenotype-environment interaction in transmission disequilibrium tests.
Transmission disequilibrium tests (TDTs) provide an approach to the detection of associations between alleles at marker loci and risk of complex disorders. The logistic regression approach to TDTs proposed by Sham and Curtis (1995) is generalized to provide separate tests of the main effects of marker loci on genetic risk and genotype-environment interaction (G x E) arising because multiple all...
متن کاملThe Textile Plot: A New Linkage Disequilibrium Display of Multiple-Single Nucleotide Polymorphism Genotype Data
Linkage disequilibrium (LD) is a major concern in many genetic studies because of the markedly increased density of SNP (Single Nucleotide Polymorphism) genotype markers. This dramatic increase in the number of SNPs may cause problems in statistical analyses, such as by introducing multiple comparisons in hypothesis testing and colinearity in logistic regression models, because of the presence ...
متن کاملImproving sequence-based genotype calls with linkage disequilibrium and pedigree information
Whole and targeted sequencing of human genomes is a promising, increasingly feasible tool for discovering genetic contributions to risk of complex diseases. A key step is calling an individual’s genotype from the multiple aligned short read sequences of his DNA, each of which is subject to nucleotide read error. Current methods are designed to call genotypes separately at each locus from the se...
