Warfarin dosing remains challenging due to narrow therapeutic index and highly individual variability. Incorrect warfarin dosing is associated with devastating adverse events. Remarkable efforts have been made to develop the machine learning based wa...
INTRODUCTION: Many chronic disorders have genomic etiology, disease progression, clinical presentation, and response to treatment that vary on a patient-to-patient basis. Such variability creates a need to identify characteristics within patient popu...
Using a powerful machine learning approach, a recent study of human genomes has revealed widespread footprints of recent positive selection on standing genetic variation.
Plant DNA methylation changes occur hundreds to thousands of times faster than DNA mutations and can be transmitted transgenerationally, making them useful for studying population-scale patterns in clonal or selfing species. However, a state-of-the-a...
MOTIVATION: Understanding the functional consequence of genetic variants, especially the non-coding ones, is important but particularly challenging. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) or quantitative trait locus analyses may be subject to limited...
Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a common neurodevelopmental disorder. Although genome-wide association studies (GWAS) identify the risk ADHD-associated variants and genes with significant P-values, they may neglect the combined eff...
Over the last decade, genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have discovered thousands of genetic variants underlying complex human diseases and agriculturally important traits. These findings have been utilized to dissect the biological basis of dis...
Assessing the causal tissues of human complex diseases is important for the prioritization of trait-associated genetic variants. Yet, the biological underpinnings of trait-associated variants are extremely difficult to infer due to statistical noise ...
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) associate single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) to complex phenotypes. Most human SNPs fall in non-coding regions and are likely regulatory SNPs, but linkage disequilibrium (LD) blocks make it difficult to dist...
Although evidence indicates that drug target genes share some common evolutionary features, there have been few studies analyzing evolutionary features of drug targets from an overall level. Therefore, we conducted an analysis which aimed to investig...
