Mitochondrial DNA genotype-phenotype interactions

A recent study has found that genetic variants in mitochondrial DNA could increase the risk of developing several common diseases, […]

Phenotype prediction accuracy limited by negative selection

Using population genetic models, researchers show that negative selection on complex traits limits phenotype prediction accuracy between populations. Phenotype prediction […]

Mitochondrial stress: a phenotype of spaceflight

Spaceflight is known to impact human physiology, but the distinct molecular aetiologies are unknown. In a recent study, published in […]

Pheno-RNA: a method to associate genes with phenotypes

In a recent article, published in PNAS, researchers have described a new method – Pheno-RNA – to identify candidate genes […]

Human brain-derived proteome data helps elucidate a genetic causal pathway for neurological phenotypes

A team of researchers have analysed human proteome data from brain tissue to study whether targeted proteins predictively mediated the […]
