Elusive Copy Number Variation in the Mouse Genome
BACKGROUND Array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) to detect copy number variants (CNVs) in mammalian genomes has led to a growing awareness of the potential importance of this category of sequence variation as a cause of phenotypic variation. Yet there are large discrepancies between studies, so that the extent of the genome affected by CNVs is unknown. We combined molecular and aCGH an...
متن کاملExperimental designs for array comparative genomic hybridization technology.
Array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) technology is commonly used to estimate genome-wide copy-number variation and to evaluate associations between copy number and disease. Although aCGH technology is well developed and there are numerous algorithms available for estimating copy number, little attention has been paid to the important issue of the statistical experimental design. Herei...

Background: Karyotype analysis has been the standard and reliable procedure for prenatal cytogenetic diagnosis since the 1970s. However, the major limitation remains requirement for cell culture, resulting in a delay of as much as 14 days to get the test results.CGH array technology has proven to be useful in detecting causative genomic imbalances or genetic mutations in as many as 15% of child...
متن کاملComparative Studies of Copy Number Variation Detection Methods for Next-Generation Sequencing Technologies
Copy number variation (CNV) has played an important role in studies of susceptibility or resistance to complex diseases. Traditional methods such as fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) suffer from low resolution of genomic regions. Following the emergence of next generation sequencing (NGS) technologies, CNV detection methods based on the...
متن کاملHuman copy number polymorphic genes.
Recent large-scale genomic studies within human populations have identified numerous genomic regions as copy number variant (CNV). As these CNV regions often overlap coding regions of the genome, large lists of potentially copy number polymorphic genes have been produced that are candidates for disease association. Most of the current data regarding normal genic variation, however, has been gen...
