Genome and epigenome analysis of monozygotic twins discordant for congenital heart disease.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Meta-analysis of QTLs combines the results of several QTL detection studies and provides narrow confidence intervals for meta-QTLs, permitting easier positional candidate gene identification. It is usually applied to multiple mapping populations, but can be applied to one. Here, a meta-analysis of drought re...

abstract：BACKGROUND:During cancer progression, malignant cells accumulate somatic mutations that can lead to genetic aberrations. In particular, evolutionary events akin to segmental duplications or deletions can alter the copy-number profile (CNP) of a set of genes in a genome. Our aim is to compute the evolutionary distance b...
