Human Genetic Variation and Parkinson’s Disease
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a chronic neurodegenerative disorder with multifactorial etiology. In the past decade, the genetic causes of monogenic forms of familial PD have been defined. However, the etiology and pathogenesis of the majority of sporadic PD cases that occur in outbred populations have yet to be clarified. The recent development of resources such as the International HapMap Proje...
متن کاملHuman copy number variation and complex genetic disease.
Copy number variants (CNVs) play an important role in human disease and population diversity. Advancements in technology have allowed for the analysis of CNVs in thousands of individuals with disease in addition to thousands of controls. These studies have identified rare CNVs associated with neuropsychiatric diseases such as autism, schizophrenia, and intellectual disability. In addition, copy...
متن کاملInterpreting noncoding genetic variation in complex traits and human disease
Association studies provide genome-wide information about the genetic basis of complex disease, but medical research has focused primarily on protein-coding variants, owing to the difficulty of interpreting noncoding mutations. This picture has changed with advances in the systematic annotation of functional noncoding elements. Evolutionary conservation, functional genomics, chromatin state, se...
متن کاملGenetic variation among Escherichia coli isolates from human and calves by using RAPD PCR
Background: Various strains of Escherichia coli (E. coli) are known as major causes of intestinal and extraintestinal infections in humans and various animal species. Molecular methods are important for the identification of bacterial isolates and nucleotide sequence variations, as well as information on tracking bacterial agents related to the outbreaks, the frequency of the bacterial genetic ...
متن کاملSplicing, cis genetic variation and disease.
Splicing is a post-transcriptional modification of RNA during which introns are removed and exons are joined. Most of the mammalian genes undergo constitutive and alternative splicing events. In addition to the strong signals of the splice sites, splicing is influenced at a distance by a range of trans factors that interact with cis regulatory elements and influence the spliceosome. The intenti...
