TLDR
MicroRNA, mRNA, and protein expression link development and aging in human and macaque brain.
- M. Somel, Song Guo, +12 authors P. Khaitovich
- Biology, Medicine
- Genome research
- 1 September 2010
Changes in gene expression levels determine differentiation of tissues involved in development and are associated with functional decline in aging. Although development is tightly regulated, the… Expand
Deep sequencing reveals 50 novel genes for recessive cognitive disorders
- H. Najmabadi, H. Hu, +42 authors H. Ropers
- Biology, Medicine
- Nature
- 6 October 2011
Common diseases are often complex because they are genetically heterogeneous, with many different genetic defects giving rise to clinically indistinguishable phenotypes. This has been amply… Expand
VAAST 2.0: Improved Variant Classification and Disease-Gene Identification Using a Conservation-Controlled Amino Acid Substitution Matrix
- H. Hu, C. Huff, B. Moore, Steven Flygare, M. Reese, M. Yandell
- Biology, Medicine
- Genetic epidemiology
- 8 July 2013
The need for improved algorithmic support for variant prioritization and disease‐gene identification in personal genomes data is widely acknowledged. We previously presented the Variant Annotation,… Expand
A probabilistic disease-gene finder for personal genomes.
- M. Yandell, C. Huff, +5 authors M. Reese
- Biology, Medicine
- Genome research
- 1 September 2011
VAAST (the Variant Annotation, Analysis & Search Tool) is a probabilistic search tool for identifying damaged genes and their disease-causing variants in personal genome sequences. VAAST builds on… Expand
Estimating accuracy of RNA-Seq and microarrays with proteomics
- X. Fu, N. Fu, +8 authors P. Khaitovich
- Medicine, Biology
- BMC Genomics
- 16 April 2009
BackgroundMicroarrays revolutionized biological research by enabling gene expression comparisons on a transcriptome-wide scale. Microarrays, however, do not estimate absolute expression level… Expand
Increased Circulating Levels of Betatrophin in Newly Diagnosed Type 2 Diabetic Patients
- H. Hu, Wenjun Sun, +9 authors G. Yuan
- Medicine
- Diabetes Care
- 10 September 2014
OBJECTIVE Betatrophin, a newly identified hormone, has been recently characterized as a potent stimulator that increases the production and expansion of insulin-secreting β-cells in mice, but the… Expand
De novo truncating mutations in ASXL3 are associated with a novel clinical phenotype with similarities to Bohring-Opitz syndrome
- M. Bainbridge, H. Hu, +11 authors H. Ropers
- Medicine, Biology
- Genome Medicine
- 5 February 2013
BackgroundMolecular diagnostics can resolve locus heterogeneity underlying clinical phenotypes that may otherwise be co-assigned as a specific syndrome based on shared clinical features, and can… Expand
Widespread expression of piRNA-like molecules in somatic tissues
- Zheng Yan, H. Y. Hu, +8 authors P. Khaitovich
- Biology, Medicine
- Nucleic acids research
- 5 May 2011
Piwi-interacting RNA (piRNA) are small RNA abundant in the germline across animal species. In fruit flies and mice, piRNA have been implicated in maintenance of genomic integrity by transposable… Expand
A noncoding, regulatory mutation implicates HCFC1 in nonsyndromic intellectual disability.
- Lingli Huang, L. Jolly, +16 authors J. Gécz
- Biology, Medicine
- American journal of human genetics
- 5 October 2012
The discovery of mutations causing human disease has so far been biased toward protein-coding regions. Having excluded all annotated coding regions, we performed targeted massively parallel… Expand
