  1. Missense pharmacogenomic (PGx) variants refer to amino acid substitutions that potentially affect the pharmacokinetic (PK) or pharmacodynamic (PD) response to drug therapies. The PGx variants, as compared to d...

    Citation: BMC Genomics 2014 15(Suppl 4):S4
  2. Genome wide association studies (GWAS) have revealed a large number of links between genome variation and complex disease. Among other benefits, it is expected that these insights will lead to new therapeutic ...

    Authors: Chen Cao and John Moult
    Citation: BMC Genomics 2014 15(Suppl 4):S5
  3. The rapid growth of un-annotated missense variants poses challenges requiring novel strategies for their interpretation. From the thermodynamic point of view, amino acid changes can lead to a change in the int...

    Citation: BMC Genomics 2014 15(Suppl 4):S7
  4. Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) of whole exomes or genomes is increasingly being used in human genetic research and diagnostics. Sharing NGS data with third parties can help physicians and researchers to iden...

    Citation: BMC Genomics 2014 15(Suppl 4):S8
  5. Reference-free SNP detection, that is identifying SNPs between samples directly from comparison of primary sequencing data with other primary sequencing data and not to a pre-assembled reference genome is an e...

    Citation: BMC Genomics 2014 15(Suppl 4):S10
  6. Inflammation has significant roles in all phases of tumor development, including initiation, progression and metastasis. Interleukin-10 (IL-10) is a well-known immuno-modulatory cytokine with an anti-inflammat...
