in this research, samples were collected from three iranian native dogs and three wolves. whole-genome sequencing for each individual was performed using next-generation sequencing technology. all short reads were aligned to the reference genome using bwa tool. single-nucleotide polymorphisms (snps) and small insertions and deletions (indels) were detected using the genome analysis toolkit (gat...

the relation between single nucleotide polymorphisms (snps) and some diseases has been concerned by many researchers. also the missing snps are quite common in genetic association studies. hence, this article investigates the relation between existing snps in dnmt1 of human chromosome 19 with colorectal cancer. this article aims is to presents an imputation method for missing snps not at random...

tumor necrosis factor alpha-inducible protein 3 (tnfaip3) gene polymorphisms have been reported to be associated with the susceptibility to several immune-related diseases. here we investigated the effect of tnfaip3 gene polymorphisms on the risk of allergic rhinitis (ar) in a chinese han population. the case-control study included 540 ar patients and 524 healthy controls. genotyping for tnfaip...

allele frequencies of single nucleotide polymorphisms (snps) are variable among different populations; therefore the study of snps in ethnic groups is important for establishing the clinical significance of the screening of these polymorphisms. the main goal of the research is to study the polymorphisms of cyp2c9 , cyp2c19 , vkorc1 , and slco1b1 in yakuts. genomic dna from 229 yakut subjects we...

Objective(s): Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the leading cause of death in both male and female worldwide. The main cause of CAD is the atherosclerosis of coronary arteries, which is, mostly caused by genetic alteration. 50% of such cases occur in mitotic cells where single-strand breaks occur spontaneously or due to ionizing radiation. X-ray repair cross-complementing protein 1 (XRCC1) as a ...

results the allele and genotype distributions of pnpla3 rs738409 and rs2281135 were not significantly different between the chb and lc groups. after segregation on the basis of sex, no significant correlation between pnpla3 (rs738409 and rs2281135) genotypes/alleles and liver cirrhosis was detected. moreover, none of the haplotypes in pnpla3 (rs738409 and rs2281135) was found to be statisticall...
