9 Genes and Environment Initiative

10 Combinatorial Complexity of CHD

11 Principles of whole-genome association mapping and finding complex disease genes

12 Characteristics of complex diseases Multiple genes Common variants Low penetrance Genetic interactions Epigenetic effects :

13 Complex inheritance: An Hypothesis Complex (non-mendelian) inheritance arises from the accumulation of common polymorphisms with small-to-modest allelic effects at multiple genes Common variants underlying disease can be identified a priori!

14 Whenever a mutation has a single origin it can be identified individually or through its association with nearby markers surrogates by virtue of being associated in the population through shared genetic history linkage disequilibrium (LD) mapping

15 Haplotype Map of the Human Genome Goals: provide genotyping information to support efficient and well-powered genetic association studies of human disease Define patterns of genetic variation across human genome Guide selection of SNPs efficiently to tag common variants Public release of all data (assays, genotypes): Phase I: 1.3 M markers in 269 people (1SNP/5kb at 5% +) Phase II: +3.1 M markers in 270 people(1snp/1kb at 5% +) The remarkable feature learnt is the pervasive nature of
