ROHMM – A Flexible Hidden Markov Model Framework To Detect Runs of Homozygosity From Genotyping Data
ROHMM – A Flexible Hidden Markov Model Framework To Detect Runs of Homozygosity From Genotyping Data
Abstract Runs of long homozygous stretches (ROH) are considered to be the result of consanguinity and usually contain rece...
Vulnerable exons, like ACADM exon 5, are highly dependent on maintaining a correct balance between splicing enhancers and silencers
Vulnerable exons, like ACADM exon 5, are highly dependent on maintaining a correct balance between splicing enhancers and silencers
Abstract It is now widely accepted that aberrant splicing of constitutive exons is often caused by mutations affecting cis...
