SNPPhenA: a corpus for extracting ranked associations of single-nucleotide polymorphisms and phenotypes from literature.

Journal of biomedical semantics
BACKGROUND: Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) are among the most important types of genetic variations influencing common diseases and phenotypes. Recently, some corpora and methods have been developed with the purpose of extracting mutations an...

An empirical fuzzy multifactor dimensionality reduction method for detecting gene-gene interactions.

BMC genomics
BACKGROUND: Detection of gene-gene interaction (GGI) is a key challenge towards solving the problem of missing heritability in genetics. The multifactor dimensionality reduction (MDR) method has been widely studied for detecting GGIs. MDR reduces the...

Genetic Variation in CD36 Is Associated with Decreased Fat and Sugar Intake in Obese Children and Adolescents.

Journal of nutrigenetics and nutrigenomics
BACKGROUND/AIMS: Taste is recognized as an important predictor of food choices. Thus, polymorphisms in genes encoding taste receptors may explain the variability in food preference and intake. Here, we aimed to determine whether genetic variation in ...

Who's Who? Detecting and Resolving Sample Anomalies in Human DNA Sequencing Studies with Peddy.

American journal of human genetics
The potential for genetic discovery in human DNA sequencing studies is greatly diminished if DNA samples from a cohort are mislabeled, swapped, or contaminated or if they include unintended individuals. Unfortunately, the potential for such errors is...

CaspNeuroD: a knowledgebase of predicted caspase cleavage sites in human proteins related to neurodegenerative diseases.

Database : the journal of biological databases and curation
BACKGROUND: A variety of neurodegenerative diseases (NDs) have been associated with deregulated caspase activation that leads to neuronal death. Caspases appear to be involved in the molecular pathology of NDs by directly cleaving important proteins....

A Review on Methods for Detecting SNP Interactions in High-Dimensional Genomic Data.

IEEE/ACM transactions on computational biology and bioinformatics
In this era of genome-wide association studies (GWAS), the quest for understanding the genetic architecture of complex diseases is rapidly increasing more than ever before. The development of high throughput genotyping and next generation sequencing ...

SNooPer: a machine learning-based method for somatic variant identification from low-pass next-generation sequencing.

BMC genomics
BACKGROUND: Next-generation sequencing (NGS) allows unbiased, in-depth interrogation of cancer genomes. Many somatic variant callers have been developed yet accurate ascertainment of somatic variants remains a considerable challenge as evidenced by t...

A comparative analysis of chaotic particle swarm optimizations for detecting single nucleotide polymorphism barcodes.

Artificial intelligence in medicine
OBJECTIVE: Evolutionary algorithms could overcome the computational limitations for the statistical evaluation of large datasets for high-order single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) barcodes. Previous studies have proposed several chaotic particle swa...

Unsupervised detection of cancer driver mutations with parsimony-guided learning.

Nature genetics
Methods are needed to reliably prioritize biologically active driver mutations over inactive passengers in high-throughput sequencing cancer data sets. We present ParsSNP, an unsupervised functional impact predictor that is guided by parsimony. ParsS...
