Research Abstract |
With the progress of recent studies in human genetics, methods to identify causing or susceptible variations have been established. Especially, many genes and polymorphisms which associated with diseases or phenotypes have been identified. Much of those studies were focused on single nucleotides polymorphisms, which are most frequent variation in human genome. However, other type of variations including copy number variations might associate with phenotypes. Here we focus on the structural variation, especially inversions and translocations and aimed to identify those variations.
