| Research Abstract |
I analysed two Japanese siblings from consanguineous marriages who had aggressive periodontitis. I performed a genome-wide scan of single nucleotide polymorphisms by using the GeneChip, and selected for the run of homozygous SNPs (RHSs) using homozygosity mapping. I extracted overlapped RHSs of two sublings as the candidate region. I listed up to 5 candidate genes which had non-synonymous mutation using next-generation sequencing technology.
