Moving “Forward” in Plasmodium Genetics through a Transposon-Based Approach
The genome sequence of the human malaria parasite, Plasmodium falciparum, was released almost a decade ago. A majority of the Plasmodium genome, however, remains annotated to code for hypothetical proteins with unknown functions. The introduction of forward genetics has provided novel means to gain a better understanding of gene functions and their associated phenotypes in Plasmodium. Even with...
متن کاملOphthalmic Molecular Genetics
Methods: A cohort of 48 patients with MFC was compared with previously characterized cohorts of patients with advanced AMD (368 samples) and matched unaffected controls (368 samples). Allele and genotype frequencies of single nucleotide polymorphisms for the following AMD-associated alleles were evaluated: risk alleles in complement factor H (CFH) gene (Y402H and IVS14) and LOC387715/HTRA1 gene...

Methods: High-resolution macular images were obtained by adaptive optics scanning laser ophthalmoscopy and spectral domain optical coherence tomography in 3 patients with USH3 and were compared with those of age-similar control subjects. Vision function measures included best-corrected visual acuity, kinetic and static perimetry, and full-field electroretinography. Coding regions of the CLRN1 g...

22 Sports genetics can take advantage of lessons learned from human disease genetics. By 23 righting past mistakes and increasing scientific rigor, the breadth and depth of knowledge in 24 the field can be magnified. We present an outline of challenges facing sports genetics in the 25 light of experiences from medical research. 26 Sports performance is complex, resulting from a combination of a...
