Semiconductor Sequencing Analysis of Chromosomal Copy Number Variations in Spontaneous Miscarriage
BACKGROUND Array CGH is the criterion standard for identifying copy number variations (CNV), but the restrictive requirement of DNA quality and relatively high cost prevent the use of this method as a general assay in hospitals in developing countries. Our principal objective was to determine whether the semiconductor sequencing platform (SSP) could be an alternative method in CNV detection for...
متن کاملGenomic characteristics of miscarriage copy number variants.
Studies of copy number variants (CNVs) in miscarriages are rare in comparison to post-natal cases with developmental abnormalities. The overall characteristics of miscarriage CNVs (size, gene content and function) are therefore largely unexplored. Our goal was to assess and compare the characteristics of CNVs identified in 101 euploid miscarriages from four high-resolution array studies that do...
متن کاملAnalysis of Copy Number Variations in Patients with Autism Using Cytogenetic and MLPA Techniques: Report of 16p13.1p13.3 and 10q26.3 Duplications
Autism is a common neuropsychiatric disorder affecting 1 in 68 children. Copy number variations (CNVs) are known to be major contributors of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). There are different whole genome or targeted techniques to identify CNVs in the patients including karyotyping, multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) and array CGH. In this study, we used karyotyping and ML...
متن کاملStatistical issues in the analysis of DNA Copy Number Variations
Approaches to assess copy number variation have advanced rapidly and are being incorporated into genetic studies. While the technology exists for CNV genotyping, a further understanding and discussion of how to use the CNV data for association analyses is warranted. We present the options available for processing and analysing CNV data. We break these steps down into choice of genotyping platfo...
متن کاملHuman subtelomeric copy number variations.
Copy number variation is a defining characteristic of human subtelomeres. Human subtelomeric segmental duplication regions ('Subtelomeric Repeats') comprise about 25% of the most distal 500 kb and 80% of the most distal 100 kb in human DNA. Huge allelic disparities seen in subtelomeric DNA sequence content and organization are postulated to have an impact on the dosage of transcripts embedded w...
