Phandango: an interactive viewer for bacterial population genomics.

Bioinformatics (Oxford, England)

Hadfield J, Croucher NJ, Goater RJ, Abudahab K, Aanensen DM, Harris SR.
PMID: 29028899
Bioinformatics. 2018 Jan 15;34(2):292-293. doi: 10.1093/bioinformatics/btx610.

SUMMARY: Fully exploiting the wealth of data in current bacterial population genomics datasets requires synthesizing and integrating different types of analysis across millions of base pairs in hundreds or thousands of isolates. Current approaches often use static representations of...

A cornucopia of candidates for deafness.

Cell

Lewis MA, Steel KP.
PMID: 22939617
Cell. 2012 Aug 31;150(5):879-81. doi: 10.1016/j.cell.2012.08.007.

Many genes involved in deafness are yet to be discovered. Here, Senthilan et al. focus on the Drosophila Johnston's organ to uncover a wide variety of genes, including several unexpected candidates as well as those already known to underlie...

A computational lens for sexual-stage transmission, reproduction, fitness and kinetics in Plasmodium falciparum.

Malaria journal

Lawniczak MK, Eckhoff PA.
PMID: 27653663
Malar J. 2016 Sep 21;15(1):487. doi: 10.1186/s12936-016-1538-5.

BACKGROUND: The burden of falciparum malaria remains unacceptably high in much of sub-Saharan Africa and massive efforts are underway to eliminate the parasite. While symptoms of malaria are caused by asexual reproduction of the parasite, transmission to new human...

Two microbiota subtypes identified in irritable bowel syndrome with distinct responses to the low FODMAP diet.

Gut

Vervier K, Moss S, Kumar N, Adoum A, Barne M, Browne H, Kaser A, Kiely CJ, Neville BA, Powell N, Raine T, Stares MD, Zhu A, De La Revilla Negro J, Lawley TD, Parkes M.
PMID: 34810234
Gut. 2021 Nov 22; doi: 10.1136/gutjnl-2021-325177. Epub 2021 Nov 22.

OBJECTIVE: Reducing FODMAPs (fermentable oligosaccharides, disaccharides, monosaccharides and polyols) can be clinically beneficial in IBS but the mechanism is incompletely understood. We aimed to detect microbial signatures that might predict response to the low FODMAP diet and assess whether...

An Orphan CpG Island Drives Expression of a .

Epigenomes

Koerner MV, Chhatbar K, Webb S, Cholewa-Waclaw J, Selfridge J, De Sousa D, Skarnes B, Rosen B, Thomas M, Bottomley J, Ramires-Solis R, Lelliott C, Adams DJ, Bird A.
PMID: 31354981
Epigenomes. 2019 Mar;3(1):7. doi: 10.3390/epigenomes3010007. Epub 2019 Mar 13.

Most human genes are associated with promoters embedded in non-methylated, G + C-rich CpG islands (CGIs). Not all CGIs are found at annotated promoters, however, raising the possibility that many serve as promoters for transcripts that do not code...

We report here the complete genome sequence of the widely studied

Sibling rivalry among paralogs promotes evolution of the human brain.

Cell

Tyler-Smith C, Xue Y.
PMID: 22579279
Cell. 2012 May 11;149(4):737-9. doi: 10.1016/j.cell.2012.04.020.

Geneticists have long sought to identify the genetic changes that made us human, but pinpointing the functionally relevant changes has been challenging. Two papers in this issue suggest that partial duplication of SRGAP2, producing an incomplete protein that antagonizes...

Genome-wide analysis of 53,400 people with irritable bowel syndrome highlights shared genetic pathways with mood and anxiety disorders.

Nature genetics

Eijsbouts C, Zheng T, Kennedy NA, Bonfiglio F, Anderson CA, Moutsianas L, Holliday J, Shi J, Shringarpure S, Voda AI, Farrugia G, Franke A, Hübenthal M, Abecasis G, Zawistowski M, Skogholt AH, Ness-Jensen E, Hveem K, Esko T, Teder-Laving M, Zhernakova A, Camilleri M, Boeckxstaens G, Whorwell PJ, Spiller R, McVean G, D'Amato M, Jostins L, Parkes M.
PMID: 34741163
Nat Genet. 2021 Nov;53(11):1543-1552. doi: 10.1038/s41588-021-00950-8. Epub 2021 Nov 05.

Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) results from disordered brain-gut interactions. Identifying susceptibility genes could highlight the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms. We designed a digestive health questionnaire for UK Biobank and combined identified cases with IBS with independent cohorts. We conducted a...

Relative Suffix Trees.

The computer journal

Farruggia A, Gagie T, Navarro G, Puglisi SJ, Sirén J.
PMID: 29795706
Comput J. 2018 May;61(5):773-788. doi: 10.1093/comjnl/bxx108. Epub 2017 Nov 21.

Suffix trees are one of the most versatile data structures in stringology, with many applications in bioinformatics. Their main drawback is their size, which can be tens of times larger than the input sequence. Much effort has been put...

PhenoPlasm: a database of disruption phenotypes for malaria parasite genes.

Returning genome sequences to research participants: Policy and practice.

Wellcome open research

Wright CF, Middleton A, Barrett JC, Firth HV, FitzPatrick DR, Hurles ME, Parker M.
PMID: 28317033
Wellcome Open Res. 2017 Feb 24;2:15. doi: 10.12688/wellcomeopenres.10942.1.

Despite advances in genomic science stimulating an explosion of literature around returning health-related findings, the possibility of returning entire genome sequences to individual research participants has not been widely considered. Through direct involvement in large-scale translational genomics studies, we...
