In silico analysis for determining the deleterious nonsynonymous single nucleotide polymorphisms of BRCA genes
Recent advances in DNA sequencing techniques have led to an increase in the identification of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes, but no further information regarding the deleterious probability of many of them is available (Variants of Unknown Significance/VUS). As a result, in the current study, different sequence- and structure-based computation...
متن کاملSingle Nucleotide Polymorphisms and Association Studies: A Few Critical Points
Uncovering DNA sequence variations that correlate with phenotypic changes, e.g., diseases, is the aim of sequence variation studies. Common types sequence variations are Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP, pronounced snip).SNPs are the third-generation molecular marker. SNP represents a DNA sequence variant of a single base pair with the minor allele occurring in more than 1% of a given popula...
متن کاملIndirect Molecular Diagnosis of Congenital Factor ΧІІІ Deficiency by Candidate Microsatellites and Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms
Background: Congenital factor XIII (FXIII) deficiency is one of the rarest bleeding disorders with a prevalence of one per 2 million in the general population. The disorder is accompanied by a high rate of life-threatening bleeding. Due to normal results of routine coagulation tests, diagnosis of the disorder is challenging, but molecular methods can be used for precise diagnosis. Direct mutati...
متن کاملSingle Nucleotide Polymorphisms Caused by Assembly Errors
We compare the results of three different assembler programs, Celera, Phrap and Mira2, for the same set of about a hundred thousand Sanger reads derived from an unknown bacterial genome. In difference to previous assembly comparisons we do not focus on speed of computation and numbers of assembled contigs but on how the different sequence assemblies agree by content. Threefold consistently asse...
متن کاملAn integrative scoring system for ranking SNPs by their potential deleterious effects
MOTIVATION Identifying single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that underlie common and complex human diseases, such as cancer, is of major interest in current molecular epidemiology. Nevertheless, the tremendous number of SNPs on the human genome requires computational methods for prioritizing SNPs according to their potentially deleterious effects to human health, and as such, for expediting g...
