Chroniques génomiques - Scores polygéniques : vers l’embryon à la carte ?
(EDP Sciences, 2020)
A new company is offering extensive genetic analysis of embryos during an in vitro fertilisation procedure, allowing the derivation of polygenic scores for several diseases and embryo choice based on these results. Polygenic ...
Chroniques génomiques - Néandertal et Afrique, le retour
(Éditions EDK, Groupe EDP Sciences, 2020)
Sophisticated analyses of current human populations compared to a high-coverage Neandertal genome sequence indicate that, contrary to the previous consensus, African genomes carry a small but significant amount of ...
Chroniques génomiques - Clap de fin pour le « gène de l’homosexualité »
(EDP Sciences, 2020)
Evidence for a “homosexuality gene” was claimed in the early 1990’s on the basis of linkage studies that, by current criteria, were woefully underpowered. Indeed, follow up studies gave contradictory results. Genome-wide ...
Chroniques génomiques - Tout savoir sur les mutations germinales chez les vertébrés
(EDP Sciences, 2023)
Mutations in the germline are an essential component of evolution. Current DNA sequencing systems allow quantification of these mutations through full genome sequencing of father/mother/child trios. A recent paper reports ...
Notre ADN est partout !
(EDP Sciences, 2023)
Advanced analysis of environmental DNA for diversity monitoring using deep sequencing reveals the presence of human DNA in many samples connected to human activity.Moreover, this DNA is in relatively good condition and can ...
Chroniques génomiques - Naissance d’un gène
(EDP Sciences, 2023)
The availability of an extensive set of vertebrate genome sequences, together with large-scale transcriptome studies, has allowed the discovery of numerous non-canonical ORFs (usually quite short) with evidence of ...
Chroniques génomiques - Taille à l’âge adulte : une myriade de locus
(EDP Sciences, 2023)
The combination of 281 GWAS studies for adult height leads to the identification of 12,111 SNP in 7,209 loci that together account for essentially all SNP heritability for this trait: there is no longer any significant ...
