چکیده

One of the main topics in genomics is to determine the relevance of DNA variations with some genetic disease. Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) is the most frequent and important form of genetic variation which involves a single DNA base. The values of a set of SNPs on a particular chromosome copy define a haplotype. Because of its importance in the studies of complex disease association, haplotyping is one of the central problems in bioinformatics. There are two classes of in silico haplotyping problems, i.e., single individual haplotyping and population haplotyping. In this review paper, we give an overview on the existing models and algorithms on this topic, report the recent progresses from the computational viewpoint and further discuss the future research trends.

H-PoP and H-PoPG: heuristic partitioning algorithms for single individual haplotyping of polyploids

MOTIVATION Some economically important plants including wheat and cotton have more than two copies of each chromosome. With the decreasing cost and increasing read length of next-generation sequencing technologies, reconstructing the multiple haplotypes of a polyploid genome from its sequence reads becomes practical. However, the computational challenge in polyploid haplotyping is much greater ...

Phylogeny- and Parsimony-Based Haplotype Inference with Constraints

Haplotyping, also known as haplotype phase prediction, is the problem of predicting likely haplotypes based on genotype data. One fast computational haplotyping method is based on an evolutionary model where a perfect phylogenetic tree is sought that explains the observed data. In their CPM’09 paper, Fellows et al. studied an extension of this approach that incorporates prior knowledge in the f...

Haplotyping, also known as haplotype phase prediction, is the problem of predicting likely haplotypes based on genotype data. One fast computational haplotyping method is based on an evolutionary model where a perfect phylogenetic tree is sought that explains the observed data. An extension of this approach tries to incorporate prior knowledge in the form of a set of candidate haplotypes from w...

O-36: Genome Haplotyping and Detection of Meiotic Homologous Recombination Sites in Single Cells, A Generic Method for Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis

Background: Haplotyping is invaluable not only to identify genetic variants underlying a disease or trait, but also to study evolution and population history as well as meiotic and mitotic recombination processes. Current genome-wide haplotyping methods rely on genomic DNA that is extracted from a large number of cells. Thus far random allele drop out and preferential amplification artifacts of...
