Simple method to analyze SNP-based association studies using DNA pools.
Association studies using DNA pools are in principle powerful and efficient to detect association between a marker allele and disease status, e.g., in a case-control design. A common observation with the use of DNA pools is that the two alleles at a polymorphic SNP locus are not amplified in equal amounts in heterozygous individuals. In addition, there are pool-specific experimental errors so t...
متن کاملHighly cost-efficient genome-wide association studies using DNA pools and dense SNP arrays
Genome-wide association (GWA) studies to map genes for complex traits are powerful yet costly. DNA-pooling strategies have the potential to dramatically reduce the cost of GWA studies. Pooling using Affymetrix arrays has been proposed and used but the efficiency of these arrays has not been quantified. We compared and contrasted Affymetrix Genechip HindIII and Illumina HumanHap300 arrays on the...
متن کاملDetermining SNP allele frequencies in DNA pools.
Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are among the most common types of polymorphism used for genetic association studies. A method to allow the accurate quantitation of their allele frequencies from DNA pools would both increase throughput and decrease costs for large-scale genotyping. However, to date, most DNA pooling studies have concentrated on the use of microsatellite polymorphisms. In...
متن کاملComparison of SNP-based and gene-based association studies in detecting rare variants using unrelated individuals
We compare the SNP-based and gene-based association studies using 697 unrelated individuals. The Benjamini-Hochberg procedure was applied to control the false discovery rate for all the multiple comparisons. We use a linear model for the single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) based association study. For the gene-based study, we consider three methods. The first one is based on a linear model, th...
متن کاملAn efficient haplotyping method with DNA pools.
Determination of haplotype frequencies (the joint distribution of genetic markers) in large population samples is a powerful tool for association studies. This is due to their greater extent of polymorphism since any two bi-allelic single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) generate a potential four-allele genetic marker. Therefore, a haplotype may capture a given functional polymorphism with highe...
