HD-CNV: hotspot detector for copy number variants
SUMMARY Copy number variants (CNVs) are a major source of genetic variation. Comparing CNVs between samples is important in elucidating their potential effects in a wide variety of biological contexts. HD-CNV (hotspot detector for copy number variants) is a tool for downstream analysis of previously identified CNV regions from multiple samples, and it detects recurrent regions by finding clique...
متن کاملCopy number variants and pharmacogenomics.
The earliest pharmacogenomic studies focused on highly penetrant sequence polymorphisms in drug-metabolizing enzymes. The recent discovery of the widespread occurrence of copy number variants/polymorphisms in the human genome holds promise for new pharmacogenomic discoveries, aside from the commonly used single nucleotide polymorphism approach. Here we review the discovery of copy number varian...
متن کاملmitochondrial copy number and d-loop variants in pompe patients
objective: pompe disease is a rare neuromuscular genetic disorder and is classified into two forms of early and late-onset. over the past two decades, mitochondrial abnormalities have been recognized as an important contributor to an array of neuromuscular diseases. we therefore aimed to compare mitochondrial copy number and mitochondrial displacement-loop sequence variation in infantile and ad...
متن کاملCopy number variants in Ebstein anomaly
BACKGROUND Ebstein anomaly (EA) is a rare congenital defect characterized by apical displacement of the septal tricuspid leaflets and atrialization of the right ventricle. The etiology of EA is unclear; however, recurrence in families and the association of EA with genetic syndromes and copy number variants (CNVs) suggest a genetic component. OBJECTIVE We performed a population-based study to...
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...
