A highly robust and optimized sequence-based approach for genetic polymorphism discovery and genotyping in large plant populations

Ning Jiang, Fengjun Zhang, Jinhua Wu, Yue Chen, more

Theoretical and Applied Genetics > 2016 > 129 > 9 > 1739-1757

Key message This optimized approach provides both a computational tool and a library construction protocol, which can maximize the number of genomic sequence reads that uniformly cover a plant genome and minimize the number of sequence reads representing chloroplast DNA and rRNA genes. One can implement the developed computational tool to feasibly design their own RAD-seq experiment to achieve expected coverage of sequence variant markers for large plant populations using information of the genome sequence and ideally, though not necessarily, information of the sequence polymorphism distribution in the genome....

Hong Zhang, Jinfeng Xu, Ning Jiang, Xiaohua Hu, more

Statistics in Medicine > 34 > 9 > 1577 - 1589

High‐throughput RNA‐sequencing (RNA‐seq) technology provides an attractive platform for gene expression analysis. In many experimental settings, RNA‐seq read counts are measured from matched samples or taken from the same subject under multiple treatment conditions. The induced correlation therefore should be evaluated and taken into account in deriving tests of differential expression. We proposed...

Dissecting phenotypic variation among AIS patients

Minghua Wang, Jiucun Wang, Zhen Zhang, Zhimin Zhao, more

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications > 2005 > 335 > 2 > 335-342

We have created genital skin fibroblast cell lines directly from three patients in a Chinese family affected by androgen insensitivity syndrome (AIS). All patients in the family share an identical AR Arg ⁸⁴⁰ Cys mutant but show different disease phenotypes. By using the cell lines, we find that the mutation has not influenced a normal androgen-binding capacity at 37°C but has reduced the affinity...
