As the amount of re-sequencing genome data grows, minimizing the execution time of an analysis is required. For this purpose, recent computing systems have been adopting both high-performance coprocessors and host processors. However, there are few applications that efficiently utilize these heterogeneous computing resources. This problem equally refers to the work of single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) detection, which is one of the bottlenecks in genome data processing. In this paper, we propose a method for speeding up an SNP detection by enhancing the utilization of heterogeneous computing resources often used in recent high-performance computing systems. Through the measurement of workload in the detection procedure, we divide the SNP detection into several task groups suitable for each computing resource. These task groups are scheduled using a window overlapping method. As a result, we improved upon the speedup achieved by previous open source applications by a magnitude of 10.

Artemisinin resistance (ART) has been confirmed in Greater Mekong Sub-region countries. Currently, C580Y mutation on Pfkelch13 gene is known as the molecular marker for the detection of ART. Rapid and accurate detection of ART in field study is essential to guide malaria containment and elimination interventions. A simple method for collection of malaria-infected blood is to spot the blood on filter paper and is fast and easy for transportation and storage in the field study. This study aims to evaluate LAMP-SNP assay for C580Y mutation detection by introducing an extra mismatched nucleotide at the 3' end of the FIP primer. The LAMP-SNP assay was performed in a water bath held at a temperature of 56℃ for 45 min. LAMP-SNP products were interpreted by both gel-electrophoresis and HNB-visualized changes in color. The method was then tested with 120 P. falciparum DNA from dried blood spot samples. In comparing the LAMP-SNP assay results with those from DNA sequencing of the clinical samples, the 2 results fully agreed to detect C580Y. The sensitivity and specificity of the LAMP-SNP assay showed 100%. There were no cross-reactions with other Plasmodium species and other Pfkelch13 mutations. The LAMP-SNP assay performed in this study was rapid, reliable, and useful in detecting artemisinin resistance in the field study.

Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) detection has been used extensively for genetic association studies of diseases including cancer. For mass, yet accurate and more economic SNP detection we have optimized tetra primer amplification refractory mutation system polymerase chain reaction (ARMS PCR) to detect three SNPs in the cytochrome P450 2E1 (CYP2E1) gene locus; i.e. rs3813865, rs2070672 and rs3813867. The optimization system strategies used were (1) designing inner and outer primers; (2) determining of their optimum primer concentration ratios; and (3) determining of the optimum PCR annealing temperature. The tetra primer ARMS PCR result could be directly observed using agarose gel electrophoresis. The method succesfully determined three SNPs in CYP2E1 locus, the results being consistent with validation using DNA sequencing and restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLP).

돌연변이 및 유전병의 원인이 되고 있는 유전자 단일염기 다형성(single nucleotide polymorphisms; SNPs) 검출은 조기진단, 치료 및 제약등 바이오관련 분야에서 매우 중요하다. SNPs 검출을 위한 방법은 다양하게 제시되고 있으나 상보적 DNA와 SNPs의 에너지 차이가 미세하여 SNPs 검출에는 많은 어려움이 존재한다. 본 논문에서는 SNPs를 검출하기 위하여 전하 검출형 전계효과 트랜지스터(field-effect transistors; FETs)를 이용하여 DNA가 가지고 있는 음전하 측정 방법으로 SNPs를 검출하였다. 상보적 DNA와 SNPs의 미세한 에너지 차이를 구분하기 위하여 타게트 DNA hybridization공정에서 드레인-소스 전극에 -0.3 V의 음전압을 인가하였다. 음전압 인가에 따라 DNA 자체 음전하와 센서 표면의 음전압의 전기적 반발력에 의해 센서에 검출되는 타게트 DNA hybridization 신호 크기는 감소하였으나 상보적 DNA와 SNPs의 신호 차는 1.7 mV에서 8.7 mV로 5배 이상 증가하여 검출되었다.

일반적으로 인간의 질병과 가축의 경제적인 특성은 하나의 유전자가 아닌 여러 유전자의 상호작용으로 일어난다고 믿고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 세대를 거듭할수록 대립유전자의 유전이 안정적으로 발생되어지고 개체의 기능적인 유전적 가치를 직접적으로 추정할 수 있는 single nucleotide polymorphism(SNP)을 한우의 경제적 특성인도체중(carcass cold weight)에 대하여 모수적인 방법인 ANOVA와 비모수적인 방법인 multifactor dimensionality reduction(MDR)을 이용하여 하나의 유전자의 효과와 두 개의 유전자의 상호작용 효과를 비교하였다. ANOVA에서는 하나의 유전자 SNP1이 도체중에 유의한 효과가 있었고 상호작용 효과에서는 도체중에 유의한 효과는 없었다. MDR에서는 하나의 유전자의 효과인 SNP1과 두 개의 유전자의 상호작용인 SNP1*SNP2의 효과가 컸으며 SNP1과 SNP1*SNP2를 비교했을 시에는 SNP1*SNP2의 효과가 더 크게 나타났다. 이는 개별 SNP유전자 보다 복합 SNP유전자의 상호작용이 경제적인 특성인 도체증에 더 영향을 준다는 것을 알 수 있었다.

Carboxypeptidase E (CPE) plays an important role in the regulation of the body fat content. Therefore, it has been suggested as candidate gene for traits related to meat quality in beef cattle. This study was conducted to identify single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the CPE gene and to investigate association of SNP marker with carcass and meat quality traits in Korean cattle. Three SNPs were identified in the intron 4 (A309G SNP and C445T SNP) and exon 5 (C601T SNP) of the CPE gene by sequence analyses of CPE cDNA and genomic DNA samples. The sequences have been deposited in GenBank database with accession numbers AY970664 and AY970663. Genotyping of the gene-specific SNP marker was carried out using the PCR-RFLP with restriction enzymes DdeI for C445T SNP and NlaIII for C601T SNP. The frequencies of C and T alleles were 0.43 and 0.57 for C445T SNP and 0.42 and 0.58 for C601T SNP, respectively. Statistical analysis indicated that the C445T SNP showed a significant effect (p<0.05) on marbling score (MS) and breeding value of backfat thickness (BF-EBV), respectively. Animals with the CT genotype showed higher marbling score and backfat thickness than those with the TT genotype. This marker also showed a significant dominance effect for the MS and BF-EBV (p<0.05). However, no significant associations were observed between C601T SNP genotypes and all traits examined. The results suggest that the CPE gene may be used as a marker for carcass traits in Korean cattle.

The tyrosinase gene was selected as a candidate for uncovering genetic mechanism causing 'black ear' coat color in rabbits. A PCR-SSCP detection method was established for the $881^A{\rightarrow}881^G$ mutation located in the central region of the tyrosinase gene between the CuA and CuB binding region signatures, and this was confirmed by sequencing and alignment. Fully consistent associations between the SNP and 'black ear' coat color were observed by analysis in a "black ear" pedigree and on 61 unrelated individuals. This SNP can serve as a molecular marker for use in "back ear" wool rabbit breeding.

The role of 3' exonuclease excision in DNA polymerization was evaluated for primer extension using inert allele specific primers with exonuclease-digestible ddNMP at their 3' termini. Efficient primer extension was observed in amplicons where the inert allele specific primers and their corresponding templates were mismatched. However, no primer-extended products were yielded by matched amplicons with inert primers. As a control, polymerase without proofreading activity failed to yield primer extended products from inert primers regardless of whether the primers and templates were matched or mismatched. These data indicated that activation was undertaken for the inert allele specific primers through mismatch proofreading. Complementary to our previously developed SNP-operated on/off switch, in which DNA polymerization only occurs in matched amplicon, this new mutation detection assay mediated by $exo^+$ DNA polymerases has immediate applications in SNP analysis independently or in combination of the two assays.

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.
