Variation in Human Recombination Rates and Its Genetic Determinants
BACKGROUND Despite the fundamental role of crossing-over in the pairing and segregation of chromosomes during human meiosis, the rates and placements of events vary markedly among individuals. Characterizing this variation and identifying its determinants are essential steps in our understanding of the human recombination process and its evolution. STUDY DESIGN/RESULTS Using three large sets ...
متن کاملGenetic variation among Escherichia coli isolates from human and calves by using RAPD PCR
Background: Various strains of Escherichia coli (E. coli) are known as major causes of intestinal and extraintestinal infections in humans and various animal species. Molecular methods are important for the identification of bacterial isolates and nucleotide sequence variations, as well as information on tracking bacterial agents related to the outbreaks, the frequency of the bacterial genetic ...
متن کاملGenetic Variation and its Role in Malignancy
Genetic variation has long been thought associated with common complex disease and has therefore been widely studied. Genetic variation in the human genome is present in many forms and have been summarised in this review. The potential role of DNA damage, DNA repair and environmental influence on genetic variation in the development of cancer will be discussed, before significant genome project...
متن کاملEvolution and maintenance of quantitative genetic variation by mutations.
The genotypic variance within, sigma 2w, and between, sigma 2b, random mating populations and rates and times for convergence to equilibrium values from different founder populations are formulated for an additive genetic model with an arbitrary number of alleles k, number of loci m, population size N, and mutation rate u, with unequal mutation rates for alleles. As a base of reference, the add...
متن کاملCommon genetic variation and human traits.
T human genome has been cracked wide open in recent years and is spilling many of its secrets. More than 100 genome wide association studies have been conducted for scores of hu man diseases, identifying hun dreds of polymorphisms that are widely seen to influence disease risk. After many years in which the study of complex human traits was mired in false claims and methodologic inconsistenc...
