FaST linear mixed models for genome-wide association studies.

Abstract:

:We describe factored spectrally transformed linear mixed models (FaST-LMM), an algorithm for genome-wide association studies (GWAS) that scales linearly with cohort size in both run time and memory use. On Wellcome Trust data for 15,000 individuals, FaST-LMM ran an order of magnitude faster than current efficient algorithms. Our algorithm can analyze data for 120,000 individuals in just a few hours, whereas current algorithms fail on data for even 20,000 individuals (http://mscompbio.codeplex.com/).

  • Strategy for the fine characterization of glycosyltransferase specificity using isotopomer assembly.

    abstract::Glycosylation, which represents the most complex posttranslational modification (PTM) event during protein maturation, has a vital role in biological processes. Glycan biosynthesis is orchestrated by numerous glycosyltransferases, each displaying different selectivities for multiple reaction sites. The precise specifi...
