Decoding Genomic Variance: Predicting the Functional Impact of SNPs in the ABCA1 Gene**

Introduction – Context of the study The landscape of genomic research is vast and evolving, with a significant focus on understanding how genetic variations contribute to functional differences in genes and subsequent phenotypic expressions. Among the plethora of genetic variations, single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) stand out due to their prevalence and potential impact on human […]

Unveiling the Impact of Cryptic Relatedness: Decoding Genetic Confounders in Case-Control Association Studies

Introduction – Context of the Study In the realm of human genetics, case-control association studies serve as a cornerstone for identifying genetic variants linked to various human diseases. These studies entail comparing individuals with a particular condition (cases) to those without it (controls) to discern any genetic differences. However, a significant challenge undermines the reliability […]
