The new advances in the field of genetics have led to numerous
medical breakthroughs in the past few years. Genetic Analysis:
Integrating Genes and Genomes provides an insight on the advances
made in human genetics in the last few years. The editor has
comprehensively assembled recent developments on the use of modern
genetic analytical techniques and tools for answering biological
questions related to genomic screening, mutations, gene and
environment interactions, comparative and molecular genomic
approaches for detecting genetic components of diseases. A better
understanding of the genetic basis of disease can be achieved by
studying genetic diversity across human populations. The
interaction of gene and environment and their effects on
human-specific developmental traits, genetic influences on
methylation across the human life course, interplay of genes and
lifestyle, genetic basis of disease in the context of migration,
exposure to toxic metals like Lead, and calculation of genetic risk
of diseases in unrelated individuals have been discussed. In
addition, the synergistic effects of genes involved in cancer
development, fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase deficiency, vitiligo,
psoriasis, severe hypertriglyceridemia, and susceptibility to
mycobacterial infection are explored in some chapters. Use of small
interfering RNAs (siRNA), microRNAs and SINE sequences in screening
systems have also been discussed to identify genes. In one of the
articles, the general framework of whole exome sequence data
analysis is outlined. Finally, we also present an article on
ChemProt, a publicly available compilation of
chemical-protein-disease annotation resources that enables the
study of a molecule from cellular to clinical levels.
