Analysis of Parent-of-Origin Effects on the X Chromosome in Asian and European Orofacial Cleft Triads Identifies Associations with DMD, FGF13, EGFL6, and Additional Loci at Xp22.2
Skare, Øivind; Lie, Rolv T.; Haaland, Øystein Ariansen; Gjerdevik, Miriam; Romanowska, Julia; Gjessing, Håkon K.; Jugessur, Astanand (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-02-22)Background: Although both the mother's and father's alleles are present in the offspring, they may not operate at the same level. These parent-of-origin (PoO) effects have not yet been explored on the X chromosome, which ... -
A new approach to chromosome-wide analysis of X-linked markers identifies new associations in Asian and European case-parent triads of orofacial clefts
Skare, Øivind; Gjessing, Håkon K.; Gjerdevik, Miriam; Haaland, Øystein Ariansen; Romanowska, Julia; Lie, Rolv T.; Jugessur, Astanand (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-09-06)Background: GWAS discoveries on the X-chromosome are underrepresented in the literature primarily because the analytical tools that have been applied were originally designed for autosomal markers. Our objective here is ... -
X-Linked Genes and Risk of Orofacial Clefts: Evidence from Two Population-Based Studies in Scandinavia
Jugessur, Astanand; Skare, Øivind; Lie, Rolv Terje; Wilcox, Allen James; Christensen, Kaare; Christiansen, Lene; Nguyen, Truc Trung; Murray, Jeffrey Clark; Gjessing, Håkon K. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012-06-19)Background: Orofacial clefts are common birth defects of complex etiology, with an excess of males among babies with cleft lip and palate, and an excess of females among those with cleft palate only. Although genes on the ...
