Population genetics and GWAS: A primer.
This primer provides some background to help non-specialists understand a new theoretical evolutionary genetics study that helps explain why thousands of variants of small effect contribute to complex traits.
متن کاملGenetics Primer
genetics Primer g enetics is the study of genes— the heritable information that contains the codes for proteins and other molecules which form and maintain an organism's structure and function. In most organisms, these genes are found in strands of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) molecules. The specific structure of the DNA (described below) ensures that the genetic information can be passed from o...

anti-cancer agents (p. 83); gene therapy in disease management (p. 122); HIV detection by RT PCR (p. 118); production of human insulin for diabetes control (p. 117) and golden rice with higher content of iron and vitamin A (p. 121) by recombinant DNA-technology. Taken together, Molecular Biology: Structure and Dynamics of Genomes and Proteome is a comprehensive book on molecular biology abreast...
متن کاملGenetics of rheumatoid arthritis: GWAS and beyond
The study of complex genetics in autoimmune diseases has progressed at a tremendous pace over the last 4 years, as a direct result of the enormous gains made by genome wide association studies (GWAS). Novel genetic findings are continuously being reported alongside the rapid development of genetic technologies, sophisticated statistical analysis, and larger sample collections. It is now becomin...
متن کاملType 2 Diabetes Genetics: Beyond GWAS.
The global epidemic of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) is one of the most challenging problems of the 21(st) century leading cause of and the fifth death worldwide. Substantial evidence suggests that T2D is a multifactorial disease with a strong genetic component. Recent genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have successfully identified and replicated nearly 75 susceptibility loci associated wi...
