Project description:The mtDNA and Y chromosome of up to 15 Australian Aborigines, concentrating on individuals with indigenous lineages, will be sequenced using the standard whole-genome sequencing followed by filtering out of autosomal and X sequences, so that only mtDNA and the Y chromosome will be analysed and released.

Project description:DNA methylation profiling of whole blood using Illumina's Infinium HumanMethylation27 Beadchip array. The dataset encompasses profiles of 12 non-diabetic control blood donors and 12 type-2 diabetic (T2D) individuals.

Project description:To address the question of whether mtDNA mutations might play a role in familiar ALS (fALS), mtDNA was isolated from whole blood (WB), white blood cells (WBC) and platelets (PLT) from fALS patients and the mitochondrial genome was analyzed using a mtDNA resequencing array (Affymetrix MitoChip v2.0) that allows detection of low-level heteroplasmy in addition to the conventional homoplasmic or heteroplasmic mutations. We distinguished between fALS cases with a prominent maternal (mat) inheritance pattern and fALS cases that do not point to a maternal inheritance pattern (non-mat). As additional controls we compared our results to healthy age and sex matched individuals without any known neurodegenerative background. With this we are aiming to get a deeper insight into a possible role of mtDNA alterations acting as a disease modifier in a subgroup of ALS patients presenting with a maternal transmission of the disease.
Project description:The aim of this study was to seek more novel ankylosing spondylitis (AS)-associated DNA methylation. Genome wide DNA methylation profiling was profiled in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from 24 individuals (AS: health controls (HCs) = 12:12) with high-throughput array. The Illumina Infinium MethylationEPIC Array was used to assess these genome-wide methylation patterns.
