Project description:We describe a multiple de novo CNV (MdnCNV) phenomenon in which individuals with genomic disorders carry five to ten constitutional de novo CNVs. Five such families are studied, which consists of four trios and one singleton. Various array platforms are used to interogate these families to identify de novo CNVs.

Abstract:
The roles of duplicate genes and their contribution to the
phenomenon of enzyme dispensability are a central issue in
molecular and genome evolution. A comprehensive classification
of the mechanisms that may have led to their preservation,
however, is currently lacking. In a systems biology approach,
we classify here back-up, regulatory, and gene dosage functions
for the 105 duplicate gene families of Saccharomyces cerevisiae
metabolism. The key tool was the reconciled genome-scale
metabolic model iLL672, which was based on the older iFF708.
Computational predictions of all metabolic gene knockouts were
validated with the experimentally determined phenotypes of the
entire singleton yeast library of 4658 mutants under five
environmental conditions. iLL672 correctly identified 96%-98%
and 73%-80% of the viable and lethal singleton phenotypes,
respectively. Functional roles for each duplicate family were
identified by integrating the iLL672-predicted in silico
duplicate knockout phenotypes, genome-scale carbon-flux
distributions, singleton mutant phenotypes, and network
topology analysis. The results provide no evidence for a
particular dominant function that maintains duplicate genes in
the genome. In particular, the back-up function is not favored
by evolutionary selection because duplicates do not occur more
frequently in essential reactions than singleton genes. Instead
of a prevailing role, multigene-encoded enzymes cover different
functions. Thus, at least for metabolism, persistence of the
paralog fraction in the genome can be better explained with an
array of different, often overlapping functional roles.

Project description:Omental adipose tissue was obtained from 24 women aged 25-40 years with a healthy singleton pregnancy and a pre-pregnancy BMI of 18.5-26 kg/m2. Genomic DNA was extracted for promoter DNA methylation analysis of candidate genes LEP, TNF, NPY, POMC and SOCS3 using bisulfite amplicon sequencing.

Project description:vaginal microbial diversity in singleton gestations with ultrasound-indicated cerclage
Project description:Using RNA-sequencing (RNA-Seq and miRNA-Seq), we analyzed paired villous trophoblast and decidual basalis transcriptomes of 15 women pregnant with singleton gestations grouped as follows: (1) spontaneous preterm birth (PTB) in the setting of amniocentesis-proven intra-amniotic infection (IAI) and histological chorioamnionits (n=5; GA median [range]: 26 [25-31] weeks); (2) spontaneous idiopathic preterm birth (iPTB, n=5, GA: 32 [30-33] weeks); and (3) term normal pregnancy, that delivered a heathy infant by cesarean section in the absence of labor (n=5; GA: 39 [38-39] weeks).
