Catch Me if You Can: Adaptation from Standing Genetic Variation to a Moving Phenotypic Optimum

Sebastian Matuszewski

Adaptation lies at the heart of Darwinian evolution. Accordingly, numerous studies have tried to provide a formal framework for the description of the adaptive process. Of these, two complementary modeling approaches have emerged: While so-called adaptive- ...

Quantitative single-cell analysis of S. cerevisiae using a microfluidic live-cell imaging platform

Johannes Becker

Genome-wide manipulations and measurements have made huge progress over the last decades. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, a well-studied eukaryotic model organism, homologous recombination allows for systematic deletion or alteration of a majority of its gene ...

When Others Impinge upon Your Privacy : Interdependent Risks and Protection in a Connected World

Mathias Jacques Jean-Marc Humbert

Privacy is defined as the right to control, edit, manage, and delete information about oneself and decide when, how, and to what extent this information is communicated to others. Therefore, every person should ideally be empowered to manage and protect hi ...

Association of PCK1 with Body Mass Index and Other Metabolic Features in Patients With Psychotropic Treatments

Pierre Magistretti

Weight gain is a major health problem among psychiatric populations. It implicates several receptors and hormones involved in energy balance and metabolism. Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase 1 is a rate-controlling enzyme involved in gluconeogenesis, glyce ...

A Systems Approach to Identify Genetic and Environmental Regulators of Metabolism

Evan Graehl Williams

For more than a century, it has been recognized that our genetic inheritance and our environment interact to shape who we are and how we act (nature vs. nurture ), and the study of genetics has allowed us to explain why traits can vary dramatically betwee ...

On the transition of genetic differentiation from isolation to panmixia: What we can learn from G(ST) and D

Séverine Vuilleumier Varisco

Population genetic differentiation characterizes the repartition of alleles among populations. It is commonly thought that genetic differentiation measures, such as G(ST) and D, should be near zero when allele frequencies are close to their expected value ...

Influence of CRTC1 Polymorphisms on Body Mass Index and Fat Mass in Psychiatric Patients and the General Adult Population

Pierre Magistretti, Murielle Bochud

IMPORTANCE There is a high prevalence of obesity in psychiatric patients, possibly leading to metabolic complications and reducing life expectancy. The CREB-regulated transcription coactivator 1 (CRTC1) gene is involved in energy balance and obesity in ani ...

European genetic diversity and susceptibility to pathogens

Jacques Fellay, Paul Jack Mc Laren

Infectious diseases, both in their endemic and epidemic forms, have shaped the human genome. Ecology has also contributed to geographically constrained pressures on human populations. There are now multiple examples of population-specific genetic variants ...
