Screening for interaction effects in gene expression data
Expression quantitative trait (eQTL) studies are a powerful tool for identifying genetic variants that affect levels of messenger RNA. Since gene expression is controlled by a complex network of gene-regulating factors, one way to identify these factors is to search for interaction effects between genetic variants and mRNA levels of transcription factors (TFs) and their respective target genes....

در ایران بیمه خودرو سهم بزرگی در صنعت بیمه دارد. تعیین حق بیمه مناسب و عادلانه نیازمند طبقه بندی خریداران بیمه نامه براساس خطرات احتمالی آنها است. عوامل ریسکی فراوانی می تواند بر این قیمت گذاری تاثیر بگذارد. طبقه بندی و تعیین میزان تاثیر گذاری هر عامل ریسکی بر قیمت گذاری بیمه خودرو پیچیدگی خاصی دارد. در این پایان نامه سعی در ارائه راهی جدید برای طبقه بندی عوامل ریسکی با استفاده از اصول و روش ها...
From Genotype × Environment Interaction to Gene × Environment Interaction
Historically in plant breeding a large number of statistical models has been developed and used for studying genotype × environment interaction. These models have helped plant breeders to assess the stability of economically important traits and to predict the performance of newly developed genotypes evaluated under varying environmental conditions. In the last decade, the use of relatively low...
متن کاملIdentification and prioritization genes related to Hypercholesterolemia QTLs using gene ontology and protein interaction networks
Gene identification represents the first step to a better understanding of the physiological role of the underlying protein and disease pathways, which in turn serves as a starting point for developing therapeutic interventions. Familial hypercholesterolemia is a hereditary metabolic disorder characterized by high low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels. Hypercholesterolemia is a quantitativ...
متن کاملDecreased DNA repair gene expression among individuals exposed to arsenic in United States drinking water.
Arsenic is well established as a human carcinogen, but its precise mechanism of action remains unknown. Arsenic does not directly damage DNA, but may act as a carcinogen through inhibition of DNA repair mechanisms, leading indirectly to increased mutations from other DNA damaging agents. The molecular mechanism underlying arsenic inhibition of nucleotide excision repair after UV irradiation (Ha...
