Sequencing complex diseases With HapMap.
Determining the patterns of DNA sequence variation in the human genome is a useful first step toward identifying the genetic basis of a common disease. A haplotype map (HapMap), aimed at describing these variation patterns across the entire genome, has been recently developed by the International HapMap Consortium. In this article, we present a novel statistical model for directly characterizin...
متن کاملHapmap flap
Two years ago, when biologists declared victory in sequencing the human genome, the announcement seemed all the more believable because the president of the United States himself was there to share the glory. Two years later, cancer has still not been cured, the major genetic causes of diabetes have not been uncovered, and truth be told, the human genome has still not really been fully sequence...
متن کاملNavigating the HapMap
With the availability of the HapMap--a resource which describes common patterns of linkage disequilibrium (LD) in four different human population samples, we now have a powerful tool to help dissect the role of genetic variation in the biology of the genome. HapMap is entirely complimentary to the human genome map and so it is particularly fitting that it should be viewed in a full genomic cont...
متن کاملMapping Nucleotide Sequences that Encode Complex Binary Disease Traits with HapMap
Detecting the patterns of DNA sequence variants across the human genome is a crucial step for unraveling the genetic basis of complex human diseases. The human HapMap constructed by single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) provides efficient sequence variation information that can speed up the discovery of genes related to common diseases. In this article, we present a generalized linear model fo...
متن کاملExome Sequencing Deciphers Rare Diseases
Two years ago, NIH's Undiagnosed Diseases Program began delivering genomics to the clinic on an unprecedented scale. Now, with 128 exomes sequenced and 39 rare diseases diagnosed, the program's success is paving the way for widespread personal genomics while pioneering new techniques for reigning in the "tsunami" of genomics data.
