Mitochondrion. 2021 May;58:303-310. doi: 10.1016/j.mito.2021.01.006. Epub 2021 Jan 26.

Mitochondrial dysfunction has emerged to be associated with a broad spectrum of diseases, and there is an increasing demand for accurate detection of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) variants. Whole genome sequencing (WGS) has been the dominant sequencing approach to identify...

Premature Menopause, Clonal Hematopoiesis, and Coronary Artery Disease in Postmenopausal Women.

BACKGROUND: Premature menopause is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease in women, but mechanisms underlying this association remain unclear. Clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP), the age-related expansion of hematopoietic cells with leukemogenic mutations without detectable malignancy, is...

A unifying framework for rare variant association testing in family-based designs, including higher criticism approaches, SKATs, and burden tests.

Bioinformatics (Oxford, England)

Hecker J, William Townes F, Kachroo P, Laurie C, Lasky-Su J, Ziniti J, Cho MH, Weiss ST, Laird NM, Lange C.
PMID: 33367522
Bioinformatics. 2020 Dec 26; doi: 10.1093/bioinformatics/btaa1055. Epub 2020 Dec 26.

MOTIVATION: Analysis of rare variants in family-based studies remains a challenge. Transmission-based approaches provide robustness against population stratification, but the evaluation of the significance of test statistics based on asymptotic theory can be imprecise. In addition, power will depend...

A genome-wide association study meta-analysis of clinical fracture in 10,012 African American women.

BACKGROUND: Osteoporosis is a major public health problem associated with excess disability and mortality. It is estimated that 50-70% of the variation in osteoporotic fracture risk is attributable to genetic factors. The purpose of this hypothesis-generating study was to...

Novel recessive locus for body mass index in childhood asthma.

Most genome-wide association studies of obesity and body mass index (BMI) have so far assumed an additive mode of inheritance in their analysis, although association testing supports a recessive effect for some of the established loci, for example, rs1421085...

Traditional Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) tests (the χ2 test and the exact test) have long been used as a metric for evaluating genotype quality, as technical artifacts leading to incorrect genotype calls often can be identified as deviations from HWE....
