Efficiency and consistency of haplotype tagging of dense SNP maps in multiple samples

Human Molecular Genetics

Abstract

Haplotype tagging is a means of retaining most of the information in high density marker maps, while reducing genotyping requirements. Estimates of the numbers of tagging SNPs required to cover the human genome have varied widely, ranging from 100,000 to 1,000,000. Tagging has been applied to a number of gene-based datasets but has not been evaluated in contexts reflecting those of genome-wide association studies--large chromosome regions and multiple samples drawn from the same population. We analysed 5000 common markers across a 10 Mb segment of human chromosome 20 in three samples (UK Caucasian, CEPH Caucasian, African American) to evaluate tagging efficiency and consistency. Overall, the results indicate a high degree of efficiency, yielding 3-5-fold savings in Caucasians and 2-3-fold savings in African Americans. These levels varied according to linkage disequilibrium (LD) levels, tagging thresholds and allele frequencies, but in high LD regions they did not vary markedly due to marker density. However, a strong positive relationship between marker density and tagging was observed, relating to the fact that increasing marker density yields greater sequence coverage in high LD, thus requiring more tag SNPs to cover a greate...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
