of genome structural variation (SV) to quantitative traits associated with cardiometabolic diseases remains largely unknown. Here, we present the results of a study examining genetic association between SVs and cardiometabolic traits in the Finnish population. We used sensitive methods to identify and genotype 129,166 high-confidence SVs from deep whole-genome sequencing (WGS) data of 4,848 individuals. We tested the 64,572 common and low-frequency SVs for association with 116 quantitative traits and tested candidate associations using exome sequencing and array genotype data from an additional 15,205 individuals. We discovered 31 genome-wide significant associations at 15 loci, including 2 loci at which SVs have strong phenotypic effects: (1) a deletion of the ALB promoter that is greatly enriched in the Finnish population and causes decreased serum albumin level in carriers (p = 1.47 × 10) and is also associated with increased levels of total cholesterol (p = 1.22 × 10) and 14 additional cholesterol-related traits, and (2) a multi-allelic copy number variant (CNV) at PDPR that is strongly associated with pyruvate (p = 4.81 × 10) and alanine (p = 6.14 × 10) levels and resides within a structurally complex genomic region that has accumulated many rearrangements over evolutionary time. We also confirmed six previously reported associations, including five led by stronger signals in single nucleotide variants (SNVs) and one linking recurrent HP gene deletion and cholesterol levels (p = 6.24 × 10), which was also found to be strongly associated with increased glycoprotein level (p = 3.53 × 10). Our study confirms that integrating SVs in trait-mapping studies will expand our knowledge of genetic factors underlying disease risk.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/33798444?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Garg, Shilpa</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fungtammasan, Arkarachai</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Carroll, Andrew</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chou, Mike</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Schmitt, Anthony</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Zhou, Xiang</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mac, Stephen</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Peluso, Paul</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hatas, Emily</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ghurye, Jay</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Maguire, Jared</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mahmoud, Medhat</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cheng, Haoyu</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Heller, David</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Zook, Justin M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Moemke, Tobias</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Marschall, Tobias</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sedlazeck, Fritz J</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Aach, John</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chin, Chen-Shan</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Church, George M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Li, Heng</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chromosome-scale, haplotype-resolved assembly of human genomes.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nat Biotechnol</style></secondary-title><alt-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nat Biotechnol</style></alt-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Algorithms</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chromosomes, Human</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genome, Human</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Haplotypes</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Heterozygote</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Humans</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Polymorphism, Single Nucleotide</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2021</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2021 03</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">39</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">309-312</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Haplotype-resolved or phased genome assembly provides a complete picture of genomes and their complex genetic variations. However, current algorithms for phased assembly either do not generate chromosome-scale phasing or require pedigree information, which limits their application. We present a method named diploid assembly (DipAsm) that uses long, accurate reads and long-range conformation data for single individuals to generate a chromosome-scale phased assembly within 1 day. Applied to four public human genomes, PGP1, HG002, NA12878 and HG00733, DipAsm produced haplotype-resolved assemblies with minimum contig length needed to cover 50% of the known genome (NG50) up to 25 Mb and phased ~99.5% of heterozygous sites at 98-99% accuracy, outperforming other approaches in terms of both contiguity and phasing completeness. We demonstrate the importance of chromosome-scale phased assemblies for the discovery of structural variants (SVs), including thousands of new transposon insertions, and of highly polymorphic and medically important regions such as the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) and killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptor (KIR) regions. DipAsm will facilitate high-quality precision medicine and studies of individual haplotype variation and population diversity.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/33288905?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rubinacci, Simone</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ribeiro, Diogo M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hofmeister, Robin J</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Delaneau, Olivier</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Efficient phasing and imputation of low-coverage sequencing data using large reference panels.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nat Genet</style></secondary-title><alt-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nat Genet</style></alt-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genome, Human</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genotype</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Humans</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Likelihood Functions</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Polymorphism, Single Nucleotide</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Reference Standards</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sequence Analysis, DNA</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2021</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2021 01</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">53</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">120-126</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Low-coverage whole-genome sequencing followed by imputation has been proposed as a cost-effective genotyping approach for disease and population genetics studies. However, its competitiveness against SNP arrays is undermined because current imputation methods are computationally expensive and unable to leverage large reference panels. Here, we describe a method, GLIMPSE, for phasing and imputation of low-coverage sequencing datasets from modern reference panels. We demonstrate its remarkable performance across different coverages and human populations. GLIMPSE achieves imputation of a genome for less than US$1 in computational cost, considerably outperforming other methods and improving imputation accuracy over the full allele frequency range. As a proof of concept, we show that 1× coverage enables effective gene expression association studies and outperforms dense SNP arrays in rare variant burden tests. Overall, this study illustrates the promising potential of low-coverage imputation and suggests a paradigm shift in the design of future genomic studies.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style

ageing confers this risk are largely unknown. The age-related acquisition of somatic mutations that lead to clonal expansion in regenerating haematopoietic stem cell populations has recently been associated with both haematological cancer and coronary heart disease-this phenomenon is termed clonal haematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP). Simultaneous analyses of germline and somatic whole-genome sequences provide the opportunity to identify root causes of CHIP. Here we analyse high-coverage whole-genome sequences from 97,691 participants of diverse ancestries in the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute Trans-omics for Precision Medicine (TOPMed) programme, and identify 4,229 individuals with CHIP. We identify associations with blood cell, lipid and inflammatory traits that are specific to different CHIP driver genes. Association of a genome-wide set of germline genetic variants enabled the identification of three genetic loci associated with CHIP status, including one locus at TET2 that was specific to individuals of African ancestry. In silico-informed in vitro evaluation of the TET2 germline locus enabled the identification of a causal variant that disrupts a TET2 distal enhancer, resulting in increased self-renewal of haematopoietic stem cells. Overall, we observe that germline genetic variation shapes haematopoietic stem cell function, leading to CHIP through mechanisms that are specific to clonal haematopoiesis as well as shared mechanisms that lead to somatic mutations across tissues.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">7831</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/33057201?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Abel, Haley J</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Larson, David E</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Regier, Allison A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chiang, Colby</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Das, Indraniel</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kanchi, Krishna L</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Layer, Ryan M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Neale, Benjamin M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Salerno, William J</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Reeves, Catherine</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Buyske, Steven</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Matise, Tara C</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Muzny, Donna M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Zody, Michael C</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lander, Eric S</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dutcher, Susan K</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Stitziel, Nathan O</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hall, Ira M</style></author></authors><translated-authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">NHGRI Centers for Common Disease Genomics</style></author></translated-authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mapping and characterization of structural variation in 17,795 human genomes.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nature</style></secondary-title><alt-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nature</style></alt-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Alleles</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Case-Control Studies</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Continental Population Groups</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Epigenesis, Genetic</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Female</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gene Dosage</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genetic Variation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genetics, Population</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genome, Human</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">High-Throughput Nucleotide Sequencing</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Humans</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Male</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Molecular Sequence Annotation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quantitative Trait Loci</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Software</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Whole Genome Sequencing</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2020</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2020 07</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">583</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">83-89</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;A key goal of whole-genome sequencing for studies of human genetics is to interrogate all forms of variation, including single-nucleotide variants, small insertion or deletion (indel) variants and structural variants. However, tools and resources for the study of structural variants have lagged behind those for smaller variants. Here we used a scalable pipeline to map and characterize structural variants in 17,795 deeply sequenced human genomes. We publicly release site-frequency data to create the largest, to our knowledge, whole-genome-sequencing-based structural variant resource so far. On average, individuals carry 2.9 rare structural variants that alter coding regions; these variants affect the dosage or structure of 4.2 genes and account for 4.0-11.2% of rare high-impact coding alleles. Using a computational model, we estimate that structural variants account for 17.2% of rare alleles genome-wide, with predicted deleterious effects that are equivalent to loss-of-function coding alleles; approximately 90% of such structural variants are noncoding deletions (mean 19.1 per genome). We report 158,991 ultra-rare structural variants and show that 2% of individuals carry ultra-rare megabase-scale structural variants, nearly half of which are balanced or complex rearrangements. Finally, we infer the dosage sensitivity of genes and noncoding elements, and reveal trends that relate to element class and conservation. This work will help to guide the analysis and interpretation of structural variants in the era of whole-genome sequencing.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">7814</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/32460305?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fahed, Akl C</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Wang, Minxian</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Homburger, Julian R</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Patel, Aniruddh P</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bick, Alexander G</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Neben, Cynthia L</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lai, Carmen</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Brockman, Deanna</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Philippakis, Anthony</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ellinor, Patrick T</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cassa, Christopher A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lebo, Matthew</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ng, Kenney</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lander, Eric S</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Zhou, Alicia Y</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kathiresan, Sekar</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Khera, Amit V</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Polygenic background modifies penetrance of monogenic variants for tier 1 genomic conditions.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nat Commun</style></secondary-title><alt-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nat Commun</style></alt-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Aged</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Breast Neoplasms</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Case-Control Studies</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Colorectal Neoplasms</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Coronary Artery Disease</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Female</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genetic Predisposition to Disease</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genome, Human</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Humans</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Male</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Middle Aged</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Multifactorial Inheritance</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Odds Ratio</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Penetrance</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Risk Factors</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2020</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2020 08 20</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">11</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3635</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Genetic variation can predispose to disease both through (i) monogenic risk variants that disrupt a physiologic pathway with large effect on disease and (ii) polygenic risk that involves many variants of small effect in different pathways. Few studies have explored the interplay between monogenic and polygenic risk. Here, we study 80,928 individuals to examine whether polygenic background can modify penetrance of disease in tier 1 genomic conditions - familial hypercholesterolemia, hereditary breast and ovarian cancer, and Lynch syndrome. Among carriers of a monogenic risk variant, we estimate substantial gradients in disease risk based on polygenic background - the probability of disease by age 75 years ranged from 17% to 78% for coronary artery disease, 13% to 76% for breast cancer, and 11% to 80% for colon cancer. We propose that accounting for polygenic background is likely to increase accuracy of risk estimation for individuals who inherit a monogenic risk variant.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/32820175?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Shen, Feichen</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kidd, Jeffrey M</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rapid, Paralog-Sensitive CNV Analysis of 2457 Human Genomes Using QuicK-mer2.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genes (Basel)</style></secondary-title><alt-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genes (Basel)</style></alt-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Algorithms</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Computational Biology</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">DNA Copy Number Variations</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Evolution, Molecular</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gene Duplication</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genome, Human</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Humans</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sequence Analysis, DNA</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2020</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2020 01 29</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">11</style></volume><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Gene duplication is a major mechanism for the evolution of gene novelty, and copy-number variation makes a major contribution to inter-individual genetic diversity. However, most approaches for studying copy-number variation rely upon uniquely mapping reads to a genome reference and are unable to distinguish among duplicated sequences. Specialized approaches to interrogate specific paralogs are comparatively slow and have a high degree of computational complexity, limiting their effective application to emerging population-scale data sets. We present QuicK-mer2, a self-contained, mapping-free approach that enables the rapid construction of paralog-specific copy-number maps from short-read sequence data. This approach is based on the tabulation of unique k-mer sequences from short-read data sets, and is able to analyze a 20X coverage human genome in approximately 20 min. We applied our approach to newly released sequence data from the 1000 Genomes Project, constructed paralog-specific copy-number maps from 2457 unrelated individuals, and uncovered copy-number variation of paralogous genes. We identify nine genes where none of the analyzed samples have a copy number of two, 92 genes where the majority of samples have a copy number other than two, and describe rare copy number variation effecting multiple genes at the APOBEC3 locus.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default"

evolution and human disease. As national biobanks, disease-association studies, and clinical genetic testing have grown increasingly reliant on genome sequencing, population references such as the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD) have become integral in the interpretation of single-nucleotide variants (SNVs). However, there are no reference maps of SVs from high-coverage genome sequencing comparable to those for SNVs. Here we present a reference of sequence-resolved SVs constructed from 14,891 genomes across diverse global populations (54% non-European) in gnomAD. We discovered a rich and complex landscape of 433,371 SVs, from which we estimate that SVs are responsible for 25-29% of all rare protein-truncating events per genome. We found strong correlations between natural selection against damaging SNVs and rare SVs that disrupt or duplicate protein-coding sequence, which suggests that genes that are highly intolerant to loss-of-function are also sensitive to increased dosage. We also uncovered modest selection against noncoding SVs in cis-regulatory elements, although selection against protein-truncating SVs was stronger than all noncoding effects. Finally, we identified very large (over one megabase), rare SVs in 3.9% of samples, and estimate that 0.13% of individuals may carry an SV that meets the existing criteria for clinically important incidental findings. This SV resource is freely distributed via the gnomAD browser and will have broad utility in population genetics, disease-association studies, and diagnostic screening.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">7809</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default"

Measuring aberrant gene expression has aided in identifying functional, large-effect rare variants (RVs). Here, we expanded detection of genetically driven transcriptome abnormalities by analyzing gene expression, allele-specific expression, and alternative splicing from multitissue RNA-sequencing data, and demonstrate that each signal informs unique classes of RVs. We developed Watershed, a probabilistic model that integrates multiple genomic and transcriptomic signals to predict variant function, validated these predictions in additional cohorts and through experimental assays, and used them to assess RVs in the UK Biobank, the Million Veterans Program, and the Jackson Heart Study. Our results link thousands of RVs to diverse molecular effects and provide evidence to associate RVs affecting the transcriptome with human traits.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6509</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/32913073?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Luo, Ruibang</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sedlazeck, Fritz J</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lam, Tak-Wah</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Schatz, Michael C</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">A multi-task convolutional deep neural network for variant calling in single molecule sequencing.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nat Commun</style></secondary-title><alt-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nat Commun</style></alt-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Base Sequence</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Computational Biology</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">DNA Mutational Analysis</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genome, Human</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genome-Wide Association Study</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genomics</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genotype</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genotyping Techniques</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Humans</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">INDEL Mutation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nanopores</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Neural Networks (Computer)</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Polymorphism, Single Nucleotide</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sequence Analysis, DNA</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Software</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2019</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2019 03 01</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">998</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;The accurate identification of DNA sequence variants is an important, but challenging task in genomics. It is particularly difficult for single molecule sequencing, which has a per-nucleotide error rate of ~5-15%. Meeting this demand, we developed Clairvoyante, a multi-task five-layer convolutional neural network model for predicting variant type (SNP or indel), zygosity, alternative allele and indel length from aligned reads. For the well-characterized NA12878 human sample, Clairvoyante achieves 99.67, 95.78, 90.53% F1-score on 1KP common variants, and 98.65, 92.57, 87.26% F1-score for whole-genome analysis, using Illumina, PacBio, and Oxford Nanopore data, respectively. Training on a second human sample shows Clairvoyante is sample agnostic and finds variants in less than 2 h on a standard server. Furthermore, we present 3,135 variants that are missed using Illumina but supported independently by both PacBio and Oxford Nanopore reads. Clairvoyante is available open-source ( https://github.com/aquaskyline/Clairvoyante ), with modules to train, utilize and visualize the model.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/30824707?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sedlazeck, Fritz J</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rescheneder, Philipp</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Smolka, Moritz</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fang, Han</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nattestad, Maria</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">von Haeseler, Arndt</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Schatz, Michael C</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Accurate detection of complex structural variations using single-molecule sequencing.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nat Methods</style></secondary-title><alt-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nat Methods</style></alt-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">DNA Mutational Analysis</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genome, Human</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genomics</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">High-Throughput Nucleotide Sequencing</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Humans</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sequence Analysis, DNA</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2018</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2018 Jun</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">15</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">461-468</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Structural variations are the greatest source of genetic variation, but they remain poorly understood because of technological limitations. Single-molecule long-read sequencing has the potential to dramatically advance the field, although high error rates are a challenge with existing methods. Addressing this need, we introduce open-source methods for long-read alignment (NGMLR; https://github.com/philres/ngmlr ) and structural variant identification (Sniffles; https://github.com/fritzsedlazeck/Sniffles ) that provide unprecedented sensitivity and precision for variant detection, even in repeat-rich regions and for complex nested events that can have substantial effects on human health. In several long-read datasets, including healthy and cancerous human genomes, we discovered thousands of novel variants and categorized systematic errors in short-read approaches. NGMLR and Sniffles can automatically filter false events and operate on low-coverage data, thereby reducing the high costs that have hindered the application of long reads in clinical and research settings.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/29713083?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Costello, Maura</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fleharty, Mark</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Abreu, Justin</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Farjoun, Yossi</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ferriera, Steven</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Holmes, Laurie</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Granger, Brian</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Green, Lisa</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Howd, Tom</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mason, Tamara</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Vicente, Gina</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dasilva, Michael</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Brodeur, Wendy</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">DeSmet, Timothy</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dodge, Sheila</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lennon, Niall J</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gabriel, Stacey</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Characterization and remediation of sample index swaps by non-redundant dual indexing on massively parallel sequencing platforms.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">BMC Genomics</style></secondary-title><alt-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">BMC Genomics</style></alt-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">DNA</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gene Library</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genome, Human</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">High-Throughput Nucleotide Sequencing</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Humans</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sequence Analysis</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sequence Analysis, DNA</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2018</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2018 May 08</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">19</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">332</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;BACKGROUND: &lt;/b&gt;Here we present an in-depth characterization of the mechanism of sequencer-induced sample contamination due to the phenomenon of index swapping that impacts Illumina sequencers employing patterned flow cells with Exclusion Amplification (ExAmp) chemistry (HiSeqX, HiSeq4000, and NovaSeq). We also present a remediation method that minimizes the impact of such swaps.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;RESULTS: &lt;/b&gt;Leveraging data collected over a two-year period, we demonstrate the widespread prevalence of index swapping in patterned flow cell data. We calculate mean swap rates across multiple sample preparation methods and sequencer models, demonstrating that different library methods can have vastly different swapping rates and that even non-ExAmp chemistry instruments display trace levels of index swapping. We provide methods for eliminating sample data cross contamination by utilizing non-redundant dual indexing for complete filtering of index swapped reads, and share the sequences for 96 non-combinatorial dual indexes we have validated across various library preparation methods and sequencer models. Finally, using computational methods we provide a greater insight into the mechanism of index swapping.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;CONCLUSIONS: &lt;/b&gt;Index swapping in pooled libraries is a prevalent phenomenon that we observe at a rate of 0.2 to 6% in all sequencing runs on HiSeqX, HiSeq 4000/3000, and NovaSeq. Utilizing non-redundant dual indexing allows for the removal (flagging/filtering) of these swapped reads and eliminates swapping induced sample contamination, which is critical for sensitive applications such as RNA-seq, single cell, blood biopsy using circulating tumor DNA, or clinical sequencing.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/29739332?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sanghvi, Rashesh V</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Buhay, Christian J</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Powell, Bradford C</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tsai, Ellen A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dorschner, Michael O</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hong, Celine S</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lebo, Matthew S</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sasson, Ariella</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hanna, David S</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">McGee, Sean</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bowling, Kevin M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cooper, Gregory M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gray, David E</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lonigro, Robert J</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dunford, Andrew</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Brennan, Christine A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cibulskis, Carrie</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Walker, Kimberly</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Carneiro, Mauricio O</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sailsbery, Joshua</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hindorff, Lucia A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Robinson, Dan R</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Santani, Avni</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sarmady, Mahdi</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rehm, Heidi L</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Biesecker, Leslie G</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nickerson, Deborah A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hutter, Carolyn M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Garraway, Levi</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Muzny, Donna M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Wagle, Nikhil</style></author></authors><translated-authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">NHGRI Clinical Sequencing Exploratory Research (CSER) Consortium</style></author></translated-authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Characterizing reduced coverage regions through comparison of exome and genome sequencing data across 10 centers.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genet Med</style></secondary-title><alt-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genet.

In this report, we propose a definition for reduced coverage regions and describe a set of standards for variant calling in clinical sequencing applications.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;METHODS: &lt;/b&gt;To enable sequencing centers to assess the regions of poor sequencing quality in their own data, we optimized and used a tool (ExCID) to identify reduced coverage loci within genes or regions of particular interest. We used this framework to examine sequencing data from 500 patients generated in 10 projects at sequencing centers in the National Human Genome Research Institute/National Cancer Institute Clinical Sequencing Exploratory Research Consortium.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;RESULTS: &lt;/b&gt;This approach identified reduced coverage regions in clinically relevant genes, including known clinically relevant loci that were uniquely missed at individual centers, in multiple centers, and in all centers.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;CONCLUSION: &lt;/b&gt;This report provides a process road map for clinical sequencing centers looking to perform similar analyses on their data.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">8</style></issue><custom1><style

one in five breast cancer patients. SK-BR-3 is known to be highly rearranged, although much of the variation is in complex and repetitive regions that may be underreported. Addressing this, we sequenced SK-BR-3 using long-read single molecule sequencing from Pacific Biosciences and develop one of the most detailed maps of structural variations (SVs) in a cancer genome available, with nearly 20,000 variants present, most of which were missed by short-read sequencing. Surrounding the important  oncogene (also known as ), we discover a complex sequence of nested duplications and translocations, suggesting a punctuated progression. Full-length transcriptome sequencing further revealed several novel gene fusions within the nested genomic variants. Combining long-read genome and transcriptome sequencing enables an in-depth analysis of how SVs disrupt the genome and sheds new light on the complex mechanisms involved in cancer genome evolution.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">8</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/29954844?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Regier, Allison A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Farjoun, Yossi</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Larson, David E</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Krasheninina, Olga</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kang, Hyun Min</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Howrigan, Daniel P</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chen, Bo-Juen</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kher, Manisha</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Banks, Eric</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ames, Darren C</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">English, Adam C</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Li, Heng</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Xing, Jinchuan</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Zhang, Yeting</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Matise, Tara</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Abecasis, Goncalo R</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Salerno, Will</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Zody, Michael C</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Neale, Benjamin M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hall, Ira M</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Functional equivalence of genome sequencing analysis pipelines enables harmonized variant calling across human genetics projects.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nat Commun</style></secondary-title><alt-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nat Commun</style></alt-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genome, Human</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Human Genetics</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Humans</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Whole Genome Sequencing</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2018</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2018 10 02</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">9</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4038</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Hundreds of thousands of human whole genome sequencing (WGS) datasets will be generated over the next few years. These data are more valuable in aggregate: joint analysis of genomes from many sources increases sample size and statistical power. A central challenge for joint analysis is that different WGS data processing pipelines cause substantial differences in variant calling in combined datasets, necessitating computationally expensive reprocessing. This approach is no longer tenable given the scale of current studies and data volumes. Here, we define WGS data processing standards that allow different groups to produce functionally equivalent (FE) results, yet still innovate on data processing pipelines. We present initial FE pipelines developed at five genome centers and show that they yield similar variant calling results and produce significantly less variability than sequencing replicates. This work alleviates a key technical bottleneck for genome aggregation and helps lay the foundation for community-wide human genetics studies.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal"

is essential for identifying the cellular mechanisms that underlie human genetic traits and diseases. The Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) project aims to characterize variation in gene expression levels across individuals and diverse tissues of the human body, many of which are not easily accessible. Here we describe genetic effects on gene expression levels across 44 human tissues. We find that local genetic variation affects gene expression levels for the majority of genes, and we further identify inter-chromosomal genetic effects for 93 genes and 112 loci. On the basis of the identified genetic effects, we characterize patterns of tissue specificity, compare local and distal effects, and evaluate the functional properties of the genetic effects. We also demonstrate that multi-tissue, multi-individual data can be used to identify genes and pathways affected by human disease-associated variation, enabling a mechanistic interpretation of gene regulation and the genetic basis of disease.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">7675</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/29022597?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Willems, Thomas</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Zielinski, Dina</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Yuan, Jie</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gordon, Assaf</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gymrek, Melissa</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Erlich, Yaniv</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genome-wide profiling of heritable and de novo STR variations.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nat Methods</style></secondary-title><alt-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nat Methods</style></alt-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Algorithms</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chromosome Mapping</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">DNA Fingerprinting</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genetic Predisposition to Disease</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genetic Variation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genome, Human</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">High-Throughput Nucleotide Sequencing</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Humans</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Microsatellite Repeats</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sequence Alignment</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sequence Analysis, DNA</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Software</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2017</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2017 Jun</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">14</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">590-592</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Short tandem repeats (STRs) are highly variable elements that play a pivotal role in multiple genetic diseases, population genetics applications, and forensic casework.

We mapped cis expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs) in 13 tissues via joint analysis of SVs, single-nucleotide variants (SNVs) and short insertion/deletion (indel) variants from deep whole-genome sequencing (WGS). We estimated that SVs are causal at 3.5-6.8% of eQTLs-a substantially higher fraction than prior estimates-and that expression-altering SVs have larger effect sizes than do SNVs and indels. We identified 789 putative causal SVs predicted to directly alter gene expression: most (88.3%) were noncoding variants enriched at enhancers and other regulatory elements, and 52 were linked to genome-wide association study loci. We observed a notable abundance of rare high-impact SVs associated with aberrant expression of nearby genes. These results suggest that comprehensive WGS-based SV analyses will increase the power of common- and rare-variant association studies.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">5</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/28369037?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Morrison, Alanna C</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Huang, Zhuoyi</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Yu, Bing</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Metcalf, Ginger</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Liu, Xiaoming</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ballantyne, Christie</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Coresh, Josef</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Yu, Fuli</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Muzny, Donna</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Feofanova, Elena</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rustagi, Navin</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gibbs, Richard</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Boerwinkle, Eric</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Practical Approaches for Whole-Genome Sequence Analysis of Heart- and Blood-Related Traits.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Am J Hum Genet</style></secondary-title><alt-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Am J Hum Genet</style></alt-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Black or African American</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">C-Reactive Protein</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cholesterol, HDL</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cholesterol, LDL</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chromosomes, Human, Pair 9</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gene Frequency</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genome, Human</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genome-Wide Association Study</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genomics</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hemoglobins</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Humans</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Introns</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Leukocyte Count</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lipoprotein(a)</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Magnesium</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Natriuretic Peptide, Brain</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Neutrophils</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Peptide Fragments</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Phosphorus</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Platelet Count</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Polymorphism, Single Nucleotide</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quantitative Trait Loci</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Troponin T</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">White People</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2017</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2017 Feb 02</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">100</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">205-215</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) allows for a comprehensive view of the sequence of the human genome. We present and apply integrated methodologic steps for interrogating WGS data to characterize the genetic architecture of 10 heart- and blood-related traits in a sample of 1,860 African Americans. In order to evaluate the contribution of regulatory and non-protein coding regions of the genome, we conducted aggregate tests of rare variation across the entire genomic landscape using a sliding window, complemented by an annotation-based assessment of the genome using predefined regulatory elements and within the first intron of all genes. These tests were performed treating all variants equally as well as with individual variants weighted by a measure of predicted functional consequence. Significant findings were assessed in 1,705 individuals of European ancestry. After these steps, we identified and replicated components of the genomic landscape significantly associated with heart- and blood-related traits. For two traits, lipoprotein(a) levels and neutrophil count, aggregate tests of low-frequency and rare variation were significantly associated across multiple motifs. For a third trait, cardiac troponin T, investigation of regulatory domains identified a locus on chromosome 9. These practical approaches for WGS analysis led to the identification of informative genomic regions and also showed that defined non-coding regions, such as first introns of genes and regulatory domains, are associated with important risk factor phenotypes. This study illustrates the tractable nature of WGS data and outlines an approach for characterizing the genetic architecture of complex traits.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/28089252?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Turner, Tychele N</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hormozdiari, Fereydoun</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Duyzend, Michael H</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">McClymont, Sarah A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hook, Paul W</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Iossifov, Ivan</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Raja, Archana</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Baker, Carl</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hoekzema, Kendra</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Stessman, Holly A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Zody, Michael C</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nelson, Bradley J</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Huddleston, John</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sandstrom, Richard</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Smith, Joshua D</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hanna, David</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Swanson, James M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Faustman, Elaine M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bamshad, Michael J</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Stamatoyannopoulos, John</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nickerson, Deborah A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">McCallion, Andrew S</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Darnell, Robert</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Eichler, Evan E</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genome Sequencing of Autism-Affected Families Reveals Disruption of Putative Noncoding Regulatory DNA.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Am J Hum Genet</style></secondary-title><alt-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Am J Hum Genet</style></alt-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Autistic Disorder</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">DNA</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Exome</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Female</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genome, Human</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Humans</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Male</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pedigree</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Polymorphism, Single Nucleotide</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2016</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2016 Jan 07</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">98</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">58-74</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;We performed whole-genome sequencing (WGS) of 208 genomes from 53 families affected by simplex autism. For the majority of these families, no copy-number variant (CNV) or candidate de novo gene-disruptive single-nucleotide variant (SNV) had been detected by microarray or whole-exome sequencing (WES). We integrated multiple CNV and SNV analyses and extensive experimental validation to identify additional candidate mutations in eight families. We report that compared to control individuals, probands showed a significant (p = 0.03) enrichment of de novo and private disruptive mutations within fetal CNS DNase I hypersensitive sites (i.e., putative regulatory regions). This effect was only observed within 50 kb of genes that have been previously associated with autism risk, including genes where dosage sensitivity has already been established by recurrent disruptive de novo protein-coding mutations (ARID1B, SCN2A, NR3C2, PRKCA, and DSCAM). In addition, we provide evidence of gene-disruptive CNVs (in DISC1, WNT7A, RBFOX1, and MBD5), as well as smaller de novo CNVs and exon-specific SNVs missed by exome sequencing in neurodevelopmental genes (e.g., CANX, SAE1, and PIK3CA). Our results suggest that the detection of smaller, often multiple CNVs affecting putative regulatory elements might help explain additional risk of simplex autism.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26749308?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record></records></xml>
