Tools for querying and downloading gene expression profiles are provided. Human Protein Atlas (HPA [10]): a public database with expression profiles of human protein coding genes both on mRNA and protein level in tissues, cells, subcellular compartments, and cancer tumors. Legume Information System (LIS): genomic database for the legume family [11]
Since the completion of the Human Genome Project advances in human population genetics and comparative genomics enabled further insight into genetic diversity. [7] The understanding about structural variations (insertions/deletions (), copy number variations (CNV), retroelements), single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), and natural selection were being solidified.
The Annual Review of Genomics and Human Genetics is a peer-reviewed scientific journal published by Annual Reviews since 2000. It releases an annual volume of review articles relevant to the fields of genomics and human genetics. Aravinda Chakravarti and Eric D. Green have been the journal's co-editors since 2005.
Genomics is an interdisciplinary field of molecular biology focusing on the structure, function, evolution, mapping, and editing of genomes.A genome is an organism's complete set of DNA, including all of its genes as well as its hierarchical, three-dimensional structural configuration.
Personal genomics or consumer genetics is the branch of genomics concerned with the sequencing, analysis and interpretation of the genome of an individual. The genotyping stage employs different techniques, including single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) analysis chips (typically 0.02% of the genome), or partial or full genome sequencing .
The reason is that GWAS studies identify risk-SNPs, but not risk-genes, and specification of genes is one step closer towards actionable drug targets. As a result, major GWA studies by 2011 typically included extensive eQTL analysis. [56] [57] [58] One of the strongest eQTL effects observed for a GWA-identified risk SNP is the SORT1 locus. [42]
Generalized flowchart of a structural genome annotation pipeline. First, the repetitive regions of an assembled genome are masked by using a repeat library. Then, optionally, the masked sequence is aligned with all the available evidence (ESTs, RNAs, and proteins) of the organism being annotated.
Full gene names, and especially gene abbreviations and symbols, are often not specific to a single gene. A marked example is CAP which can refer to any of 6 different genes (BRD4 Archived 2013-10-27 at the Wayback Machine, CAP1 Archived 2013-11-02 at the Wayback Machine, HACD1 Archived 2013-10-07 at the Wayback Machine, LNPEP Archived 2012-09-13 at the Wayback Machine, SERPINB6 Archived 2013 ...
