Sentence examples for variant and normal from inspiring English sources

The evidence is then split in two classes: "Variant" and "Normal" (this process is detailed in the Methods section).

The control subjects showed no evidence of any disease and had no respiratory symptoms; none of them was on medication and all had MM variant and normal plasma concentration of AAT.

Additionally, 12 CEPH DNAs were genotyped in four replicates, and the results were highly similar in each repetition with clear separation of variant and normal samples (Supp. Fig. S2).

However, in more recent in vitro studies either the variant has shown more subtle increases in the binding affinity (Befort et al., 2001) or no differences have been observed between the variant and normal receptors (Beyer et al., 2004); some studies have even indicated that the 118G (allele allele would result in decreased mRNA and protein levels (Heinz et al., 2005; Zhang et al., 2005).

We previously found Rad21 variants in cancer patients exhibiting acute radiation toxicity, suggesting an association between Rad21 gene variants and normal tissue protection that may be defective in some radiation sensitive cancer patients [17].

We examined the performance trade-offs by varying cut-offs for the MuTect somatic variant log-likelihood score and the Strelka quality score, which reflect the joint probability of a somatic variant and a normal genotype.

To identify potential splicing variants, mutant and normal sequences were analyzed with NNSPLICE version 0.9 for splice sites (http://www.fruitfly.org/seq_tools/splice.html) [Reese et al., 1997], and Human Splicing Finder version 2.4.1 (HSF; http://www.umd.be/HSF/) [Desmet et al., 2009], which includes algorithms for splice sites, silencers and enhancers.

Upon computation of the p-values for each of the variant-containing tumours, relative to all non-variant containing tumours and normal controls, not all variant-containing tumours displayed splicing abnormalities at statistically significant levels.

Control samples consist of all non-variant containing (NVC) tumour samples (relative to the variant being analyzed) and normal samples.

These genomes can act as controls for mutation significance in rare Mendelian disorders in which previous studies were often limited to sequencing a few hundred controls to determine if a detected variant is rare and normal or unique to a syndrome.

An analysis comparing causal SNP variants and the normal red blood cell demonstrated that the simplified view of the RBC could distinguish a range of pathophysiological states.
