Mutations in a human ROBO gene disrupt hindbrain axon pathway crossing and morphogenesis.
...Published in Science
The mechanisms controlling axon guidance are of fundamental importance in understanding brain development. Growing corticospinal and somatosensory axons cross the midline in the medulla to reach their targets and thus form the basis of contralateral motor control and sensory input. The motor and sensory projections appeared uncrossed in patients wi...
Detecting tissue-specific regulation of alternative splicing as a qualitative change in microarray data.
Published in Nucleic Acids Research
Alternative splicing has recently emerged as a major mechanism of regulation in the human genome, occurring in perhaps 40-60% of human genes. Thus, microarray studies of functional regulation could, in principle, be extended to detect not only the changes in the overall expression of a gene, but also changes in its splicing pattern between differen...
Efficient discovery of single-nucleotide polymorphisms in coding regions of human genes.
Published in The Pharmacogenomics Journal
Single nucleotide polymorphisms in protein coding regions (cSNPs) are of great interest for their effects on phenotype and potential for mapping disease genes. We have identified 5,400 novel exonic SNPs from alignments of public EST data to the draft human genome sequence, and approximately 12,000 more novel exonic SNPs from EST cluster alignments....
Gene expression profiling identifies molecular subtypes of gliomas.
Published in Oncogene
Identification of distinct molecular subtypes is a critical challenge for cancer biology. In this study, we used Affymetrix high-density oligonucleotide arrays to identify the global gene expression signatures associated with gliomas of different types and grades. Here, we show that the global transcriptional profiles of gliomas of different types ...
