We address the challenge of detecting the contribution of noncoding mutations to disease with a deep-learning-based framework that predicts the specific regulatory effects and the deleterious impact of genetic variants. Applying this framework to 1,7...
BACKGROUND: A large fraction of human and mouse autosomal genes are subject to random monoallelic expression (MAE), an epigenetic mechanism characterized by allele-specific gene expression that varies between clonal cell lineages. MAE is highly cell-...

Imprinted genes display biased expression of paternal and maternal alleles in mammals. They are marked through epigenetic process during gametogenesis. Characterization of imprinted genes has expanded our understanding of the regulation and function ...
BACKGROUND: Phenoconversion is a phenomenon whereby some genotypic extensive metabolizers transiently exhibit drug metabolizing enzyme activity at similar level as that of poor metabolizers. Renal failure is known to decrease CYP3A activity in humans...
Following Cas9 cleavage, DNA repair without a donor template is generally considered stochastic, heterogeneous and impractical beyond gene disruption. Here, we show that template-free Cas9 editing is predictable and capable of precise repair to a pre...

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the association of mannose-binding lectin (MBL) deficiency with susceptibility and clinical features of group B Streptococcus (GBS) causing meningitis in Chinese infants.
Several studies have reported a conflicting association between vitamin D deficiency, vitamin D receptor (VDR) polymorphism, and the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). We hypothesized that serum 25(OH)D concentrations and single nucleotide polymor...

The interpretation of genetic profiles require a robust and reliable method to discriminate true allelic information from noise, regardless of the instrumentation or methods used. Traditionally, static peak detection thresholds (analytical thresholds...
Alleles of human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-A DNAs are classified and expressed graphically by using artificial intelligence "Deep Learning (Stacked autoencoder)". Nucleotide sequence data corresponding to the length of 822 bp, collected from the Immuno...
