SNP(Single Nucleotide Polymorphism) refers to the difference in a base pair existed in DNAs of individuals. Each of it appears per 1,000 bases in human genome and it enables each gene to defer in junctions, interacts with each other to make different shapes of humans, and produces different disease sensitivities. In this paper, we propose a system to forecast lung cancer sensitivities using SNP data related with the lung cancer. A lung cancer sensitivity forecasting model is also constructed through analysis of genetic and non-genetic factors for squamous cell carcinomas, adeno carcinomas, and small cell carcinomas that may frequently appear in Korean. The proposed system with the model gives the probabilities of the onset of lung cancers in the experimental subjects.

MMP3 (Matrix metalloproteinase-3) is an important gene in the development of cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. It is also reported that the genotype of MMP3 could be a factor for disease conditions. So, SNP analysis is a prerequisite to study MMP3 related diseases. However, statistical data or analytical reports of this gene in the Korean population is not available. We have employed PCR and ARMS technique to amplify the position of Lys45Glu which is located within chromosome 11q22.3 and exon 2. Genomic DNA were extracted from 201 people. We found that, 17 individuals had the wild homozygote type (W/W, 8%), 98 individuals had the SNP homozygote type (S/S, 49%), 86 had the heterozygote type (W/S, 43%). This study should facilitate research on the cause of cardiovascular diseases due to polymorphisms in the MMP3 gene and to develop further therapy at the genetic level.

Objective: This study identifies single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) or gene combinations that affect the flavor and quality of Korean cattle (Hanwoo) by using the SNP Harvester method. Methods: Four economic traits (oleic acid [C18:1], saturated fatty acids), monounsaturated fatty acids, and marbling score) were adjusted for environmental factors in order to focus solely on genetic effects. The SNP Harvester method was used to investigate gene combinations (two-way gene interactions) associated with these economic traits. Further, a multifactor dimensionality reduction method was used to identify superior genotypes in gene combinations. Results: Table 3 to 4 show the analysis results for differences between superior genotypes and others for selected major gene combinations using the multifactor dimensionality reduction method. Environmental factors were adjusted for in order to evaluate only the genetic effect. Table 5 shows the adjustment effect by comparing the accuracy before and after correction in two-way gene interactions. Conclusion: The g.3977-325 T>C and (g.2988 A>G, g.3977-325 T>C) combinations of fatty acid-binding protein4 were the superior gene, and the superior genotype combinations across all economic traits were the CC genotype at g.3977-325 T>C and the AACC, GACC, GGCC genotypes of (g.2988 A>G, g.3977-325 T>C).

High-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol levels are associated with decreased risk of coronary artery disease. Several genome-wide association studies (GWAS) for HDL cholesterol levels have implicated Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) as possibly being causal. Herein, the association between single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs10503669 in the LPL gene and HDL cholesterol levels and triglyceride levels was tested in the Korean population. A total of 994 subjects from Seoul City were included in a replication study with LPL SNP rs10503669. SNP rs10503669 in the LPL gene was associated with mean HDL cholesterol levels (effect per allele 3.13 mg/dL, P<0.0001) and triglyceride levels (effect per allele -18.0 mg/dL, P=0.0026). Subjects with the CA/AA genotype had a 0.42-fold (range 0.23~0.77-fold) lower risk of having abnormal HDL cholesterol levels (<40 mg/dL) than subjects with the CC genotype. When analyzed by gender, the association of LPL was stronger in men than in women. This study clearly demonstrates that genetic variants in LPL influence HDL cholesterol levels and triglyceride levels in Korean adults.

The potential physiological role and technological application of the premature termination of DNA polymerization through the off-switch of exo+ polymerases were studied using 3' phosphorothioate-modified or unmodified primers with single base mismatch distal to the 3' terminus. With exonuclease-digestible unmodified primers, a gradient premature termination of DNA polymerization was observed when amplified with exo+ polymerases. With 3' allele specific phosphorothioate-modified primers, an efficient off-switch effect occurred in the discrimination of a single nucleotide polymorphism when directly using genomic DNA. Clearly, the off-switch of exo+ polymerases is useful in biomedical research.

최근 차세대 시퀀싱 (Next Generation Sequencing, NGS) 기술이 발전하면서 DNA, RNA 등의 시퀀싱 데이터를 이용한 유전체 분석 방식에 관한 연구가 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 차세대 시퀀싱 데이터를 이용한 유전체 분석 방식은 마이크로어레이 혹은 EST/cDNA 데이터를 이용한 기존의 분석 방식에 비하여 비용이 적게 들고 정확한 결과를 얻을 수 있다는 장점이 있다. 그러나 이 들 DNA, RNA 시퀀싱 데이터는 각 시퀀스의 길이가 짧고 전체 용량은 매우 커서 이 들 데이터로부터 정확한 분석 결과를 추출하는 데에 많은 어려움이 있다. 본 연구에서는 클라우드 컴퓨팅 기술을 기반으로 하여 대용량의 RNA 시퀀싱 데이터를 고속으로 처리하는 병렬 SNP 추출 알고리즘을 제안한다. 전체 게놈 데이터 중 유전자 영역만을 high coverage로 시퀀싱하여 얻어지는 RNA 시퀀싱 데이터는 유전자 변이 추출을 목적으로 분석되며, SNP(Single Nucleotide Polymorphism)와 같은 유전자 변이는 질병의 원인 규명 및 치료법 개발에 직접 이용된다. 제안된 알고리즘은 동시에 실행되는 다수의 Map/Reduce 함수에 의해서 대규모 RNA 시퀀스를 병렬로 처리하며, 레퍼런스 시퀀스에 매핑된 각 염기의 출현 빈도와 품질점수를 이용하여 SNP를 추출한다. 또한 이 들 SNP 추출 결과에 대한 시각적 분석 도구를 제공하여 SNP 추출 과정 및 근거를 시각적으로 확인/검증할 수 있도록 지원한다.

Aim: P53, the most commonly mutated tumor suppressor gene in all types of human cancer, is involved in cell cycle arrest and control of apoptosis. Although p53 contains several polymorphic sites, the codon 72 polymorphism is by far more common. There are divergent reports but many studies suggest p53 pro/pro SNP may be associated with susceptibility to developing various cancers in different regions of the world. The present study aimed to find any correlation between H. pylori infection and progression of carcinogenesis, by studying apoptosis and the p53 gene in gastric biopsies from north Indian population. Materials and Methods: A total of 921 biopsies were collected and tested for prevalence of H. pylori by rapid urease test (RUT), imprint cytology and histology. Apoptosis was studied by the TUNEL method. Analysis of p53 gene polymorphism at codon 72 was accomplished by PCR using restriction enzyme BstU1. Observation: Out of 921 samples tested 56.7% (543) were H. pylori positive by the three techniques. The mean apoptotic index (AI) in the normal group was 2.12, while gastritis had the maximum 4.24 followed by gastric ulcer 2.28, gastropathy 2.22 and duodenal ulcer 2.08. Mean AI in cases with gastric cancer (1.72) was less than the normal group. The analysis of p53 72 SNP revealed that p53 (Arg/Arg), (Pro /Arg) variant are higher (40.59% & 33.66%) as compared to p53 pro/pro variant (25.74%) inthe healthy population. Conclusions: The North Indian population harbors Arg or Pro/Arg SNP that is capable of withstanding stress conditions; this may be the reason of low incidence of gastric disease in spite of high infection with H. pylori. There was no significant association with H. pylori infection and AI. However, there is increased apoptosis in gastritis which may occur independent of H. pylori or p53 polymorphism.

In spite of variation in coat color, size, and production traits among indigenous Bangladeshi cattle populations, genetic differences among most of the populations have not been investigated or exploited. In this study, we used a high-density bovine single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) 80K Bead Chip derived from Bos indicus breeds to assess genetic diversity and population structure of 2 Bangladeshi zebu cattle populations (red Chittagong, n = 28 and non-descript deshi, n = 28) and a semi-domesticated population (gayal, n = 17). Overall, 95% and 58% of the total SNPs (69,804) showed polymorphisms in the zebu and gayal populations, respectively. Similarly, the average minor allele frequency value was as high 0.29 in zebu and as low as 0.09 in gayal. The mean expected heterozygosity varied from $0.42{\pm}0.14$ in zebu to $0.148{\pm}0.14$ in gayal with significant heterozygosity deficiency of 0.06 ($F_{IS}$) in the latter. Coancestry estimations revealed that the two zebu populations are weakly differentiated, with over 99% of the total genetic variation retained within populations and less than 1% accounted for between populations. Conversely, strong genetic differentiation ($F_{ST}=0.33$) was observed between zebu and gayal populations. Results of population structure and principal component analyses suggest that gayal is distinct from Bos indicus and that the two zebu populations were weakly structured. This study provides basic information about the genetic diversity and structure of Bangladeshi cattle and the semi-domesticated gayal population that can be used for future appraisal of breed utilization and management strategies.

Chronotype is an important moderator of psychiatric illnesses, which seems to be controlled in some part by genetic factors. Clock genes are the most relevant genes for chronotype. In addition to the roles of individual genes, gene-gene interactions of clock genes substantially contribute to chronotype. We investigated genetic associations and gene-gene interactions of the clock genes BHLHB2, CLOCK, CSNK1E, NR1D1, PER1, PER2, PER3, and TIMELESS for chronotype in 1,293 healthy Korean individuals. Regression analysis was conducted to find associations between single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) and chronotype. For gene-gene interaction analyses, the quantitative multifactor dimensionality reduction (QMDR) method, a nonparametric model-free method for quantitative phenotypes, were performed. No individual SNP or haplotype showed a significant association with chronotype by both regression analysis and single-locus model of QMDR. QMDR analysis identified NR1D1 rs2314339 and TIMELESS rs4630333 as the best SNP pairs among two-locus interaction models associated with chronotype (cross-validation consistency [CVC] = 8/10, p = 0.041). For the three-locus interaction model, the SNP combination of NR1D1 rs2314339, TIMELESS rs4630333, and PER3 rs228669 showed the best results (CVC = 4/10, p < 0.001). However, because the mean differences between genotype combinations were minor, the clinical roles of clock gene interactions are unlikely to be critical.
