Collaborative venture between the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) and several academic institutions. Repository facilitates psychiatric genetic research by providing patient and control samples and phenotypic data for wide-range of mental disorders and Stem Cells.Stores biosamples, genetic, pedigree and clinical data collected in designated NIMH-funded human subject studies. RGR database likewise links to other repositories holding data from same subjects, including dbGAP, GEO and NDAR. Allows to access these data and biospecimens (e.g., lymphoblastoid cell lines, induced pluripotent cell lines, fibroblasts) and further expand genetic and molecular characterization of patient populations with severe mental illness.

http://med.stanford.edu/tanglab/software/saber.html

Software program suitable for genome-scale data which uses a Markov-hidden Markov model (MHMM) to estimate local ancestry. The MHMM makes it possible to identify genomic blocks of a particular ancestry by use of any high-density single-nucleotide-polymorphism panel. One application is to perform admixture mapping without genotyping special ancestry-informative-marker panels.

A biological Knowledge-based mining platform for Genomic and Genetic studies using Sequence data. The software platform, constituted of bioinformatics and statistical genetics functions, makes use of valuable biologic resources and knowledge for sequencing-based genetic mapping of variants / genes responsible for human diseases / traits. It facilitates geneticists to fish for the genetic determinants of human diseases / traits in the big sea of DNA sequences. KGGSeq has paid attention to downstream analysis of genetic mapping. The framework was implemented to filter and prioritize genetic variants from whole exome sequencing data.

The NBIA Disorders Association, formerly known as Hallervorden-Spatz Syndrome Association, (HSSA) was originally founded in 1996 by President, Patricia Wood. The goals of the association are to raise funds to support research pertinent to NBIA; to provide emotional support to those afflicted with NBIA and their families; and to raise public awareness of NBIA. The NBIA Disorders Association is accepting applications for one-year grants for clinical and translational research studies related to the early detection, diagnosis, or treatment of patients with NBIA. Neurodegeneration with Brain Iron Accumulation (NBIA) is a group of rare, genetic, neurological disorders characterized by the accumulation of iron deposits in the brain and progressive degeneration of the nervous system. It typically first appears in childhood. Presenting signs and symptoms may include difficulty walking, loss of balance, and problems related to speech. Those affected suffer a progressive loss of muscle control, sudden involuntary muscle spasms, and uncontrolled tightening of the muscles. Symptoms may also include disorientation, seizures, and deterioration of intellectual ability. Approximately half of the cases diagnosed have been linked to a mutation of a gene known as PANK2. At the present time, symptoms may be treated but there is no cure. The purpose of the NBIA Disorders Association Research Grant Program is to encourage meritorious research studies designed to improve the diagnosis or treatment of NBIA. The research can be conducted in the United States, countries of the European Union, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Brazil, Argentina, Chile, South Africa, Japan, or Israel, and in other countries where adequate supervision of grant administration is possible. Grants will be awarded to qualified researchers to initiate pilot studies, the results of which are intended to be used to obtain larger multi-year grant funding. Evaluation of proposals will follow NIH guidelines and include careful consideration of experimental or protocol design, objectivity or relevance of parameters measured, and statistical analysis plan. Proposals that address the following areas will be given priority: * Therapeutics Development: ** Development of pantethine and its derivatives ** Development of other rational therapeutics * Animal & Cellular Models: ** Development of a new rodent disease model by targeted insertion of a ''human disease'' mutation into Pank2 ** Development of induced pluripotent stem cell lines. *** Development of animal and cellular models will be considered for multi-year funding with adequate budget justification. Proposals should detail a research plan and a budget for the initial phase of the work, with the option to contract further work out to a commercial enterprise. * Biomarker Discovery and Assay Development: ** Metabolomics ** Coenzyme A / acyl coenzyme A measurement using accessible (peripheral and central) tissue/fluid * New NBIA gene discovery

GAP is designed as an integrated package for genetic data analysis of both population and family data. Currently, it contains functions for sample size calculations of both population-based and family-based designs, classic twin models, probability of familial disease aggregation, kinship calculation, some statistics in linkage analysis, and association analysis involving one or more genetic markers including haplotype analysis with or without environmental covariates.

http://www.sanger.ac.uk/science/tools/ssahasnp-0

A polymorphism detection tool that detects homozygous SNPs and indels by aligning shotgun reads to the finished genome sequence. Highly repetitive elements are filtered out by ignoring those kmer words with high occurrence numbers. For those less repetitive or non-repetitive reads, we place them uniquely on the reference genome sequence and find the best alignment according to the pair-wise alignment score if there are multiple seeded regions. From the best alignment, SNP candidates are screened, taking into account the quality value of the bases with variation as well as the quality values in the neighbouring bases, using neighbourhood quality standard (NQS). For insertions/deletions, we check if the same indel is mapped by more than one read, ensuring the detected indel with high confidence. (entry from Genetic Analysis Software)

Software application that can calculate virtually any linkage test statistic under several sib pair study designs: affected, discordant, unaffected, and pairs defined by threshold values for quantitative traits, such as extreme discordant sib pairs. It uses the EM algorithm to compute maximum likelihood estimates of sharing (subject to any user-specified domain restrictions or null hypotheses) and then plots lod scores versus chromosomal position. It includes a novel grid scanning capability that enables simultaneous visualization of multiple test statistics. Phenotype definitions can be modified without recalculating inheritance vectors, thereby providing considerable analytical flexibility.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on May24,2023. Software program that implements the Mantel statistics as proposed by Beckmann et al. (2005) to test for association between genetic markers and phenotypes in case-control studies using haplotype information. The potential value of haplotypes has attracted widespread interest in the mapping of complex traits. Haplotype sharing methods take into account linkage disequilibrium information between multiple markers, and may have good power to detect predisposing genes. We present a new approach based on Mantel statistics for space time clustering, which we developed in order to improve the power of haplotype sharing analysis for gene mapping in complex disease. The new statistic correlates genetic similarity and phenotypic similarity across pairs of haplotypes for case-only and case-control studies. The genetic similarity is measured as the shared length between haplotypes around a putative disease locus. Alternative measures for the phenotypic similarity were implemented.

http://dlin.web.unc.edu/software/SCORE-Seq/

A command-line program for detecting disease associations with rare variants in sequencing studies. The mutation information is aggregated across multiple variant sites of a gene through a weighted linear combination and then related to disease phenotypes through appropriate regression models. The weights can be constant or dependent on allele frequencies and phenotypes. The association testing is based on score-type statistics. The allele-frequency threshold can be fixed or variable. Statistical significance can be assessed by using asymptotic normal approximation or resampling. The current release covers binary and continuous traits with arbitrary covariates under case-control and cross-sectional sampling. (entry from Genetic Analysis Software)
