Atypical patterns of genetic differentiation observed for <i>VKORC1</i> SNPs.
<p>Genome-wide empirical distributions of <i>F<sub>ST</sub></i> values were constructed from 644,143 SNPs having a MAF ≥0.001 at the global level. Individual values of <i>F<sub>ST</sub></i> calculated for each of the seven <i>VKORC1</i> SNPs are plotted against their global MAF. The functional rs9923231 SNP is shown in red. The 50<sup>th</sup>, 95<sup>th</sup> and 99<sup>th</sup> percentiles are indicated as dotted, dashed and full red lines, respectively.</p
Detailed analysis of a 1.1 Mb genomic region surrounding the <i>VKORC1</i> gene locus in East Asia.
<p>The boundaries of the region displayed (chr16:30,271,572-31,391,123; UCSC human genome build hg18) were chosen so as to include the three clusters of significant scores detected in East Asia by the selection tests in the 2 Mb region centered on <i>VKORC1</i> (<a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0053049#pone-0053049-g003" target="_blank">Figure 3</a>). (<b>A</b>) <b>Name and location of genes.</b> Exons are displayed as blue boxes and the transcribed strand is indicated with an arrow. Genes located in the block of strong LD encompassing <i>VKORC1</i> and including the SNPs in the red box shown in <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0053049#pone-0053049-g004" target="_blank">Figure 4C</a>, are highlighted in the grey area. (<b>B</b>) <b>XP-EHH results in East Asia.</b> The significance of the XP-EHH scores (−log<sub>10</sub> empirical <i>p</i>-value) are shown for individual SNPs with a MAF ≥0.01 in East Asia. Horizontal dashed lines indicate 0.05 and 0.01 chromosome-wide significance levels. Recombination hotspots detected in HapMap Phase II data are indicated by red vertical dotted lines. The data and methods used to derive these hotspots are available from the HapMap website (<a href="http://www.hapmap.org/" target="_blank">http://www.hapmap.org/</a>) <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0053049#pone.0053049-McVean1" target="_blank">[83]</a>, <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0053049#pone.0053049-Winckler1" target="_blank">[84]</a>. (<b>C</b>) <b>LD plot.</b> Pairwise LD values, depicted as <i>D</i>’, are shown for SNPs with a MAF ≥0.01 in East Asia. <i>D</i>’ values are displayed in different colors from yellow to red for <i>D</i>’ = 0 to <i>D</i>’ = 1, respectively. The red box highlights SNPs included in the LD block encompassing <i>VKORC1.</i> The plot was produced using the snp.plotter R package <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0053049#pone.0053049-Luna1" target="_blank">[74]</a>.</p
Distribution of –log<sub>10</sub> (<i>p-</i>values) for four selection tests across a 2 Mb region centered on <i>VKORC1</i>.
<p>A black vertical line indicates the physical position of <i>VKORC1</i> on chromosome 16. Horizontal red dotted and dashed lines show 0.05 and 0.01 chromosome-wide significance levels, respectively. The selection tests (inter-regional <i>F<sub>ST</sub></i>, XP-CLR, XP-EHH and iHS, respectively) were separately applied in each of the seven geographic regions.</p
<i>PRRT2</i> coding variants identified in individuals with ASD and controls.
a<p>Variants observed in the human genome diversity panel.</p>b<p>The p.A361_P362del was considered as probably damaging since it affects conserved amino acids of PRRT2.</p>c<p>Odds ratio, confidence intervals (CI) and P values were calculated only for populations from European ancestry using a 2-tailed Fisher exact test.</p
Chromatograms of the <i>PRRT2</i> A217PfsX8 mutation before and after whole genome amplification.
<p>The chromatograms of <i>PRRT2</i> sequence before (Native DNA) and after whole genome amplification of the DNA from three independent patients using two different protocols GenomiPhi DNA Amplification Kit (WGA-1) or Repli-G Whole Genome Amplification kit (WGA-2). The mutation was not present in the native DNA, but was detected after whole genome amplification.</p
<i>PRRT2</i> coding variants identified in this study.
<p>Schematic diagram of the <i>PRRT2</i> gene and of the three PRRT2 protein isoforms. Mutation identified in this study are indicated in green (controls and HGDP), orange (controls, HGDP, and patients) and red (patients only).</p
Genetic variability in Europe and Africa for all genes located within the 16p11.2 deletion.
<p>A. Nonsynonymous mutations per nonsynonymous sites (pN) and synonymous mutations per synonymous sites (pS) were estimated using the data from 4300 individuals from European ancestry and 2012 individuals from African ancestry available at the Exome Variant Server (<a href="http://evs.gs.washington.edu/EVS/" target="_blank">http://evs.gs.washington.edu/EVS/</a>). The horizontal lanes correspond to the means of pN and pS for the 27 genes. Difference of pN/pS between Europe and Africa were calculated using a 2-tailed Fisher exact test and the −Log<sub>10</sub> P value is indicated. B. Plot of the −Log<sub>10</sub> P values obtained for the difference between the pN/pS ratio in Africa and in Europe in relation the ratio (Europe pN/pS)/(Africa pN/pS).</p
Synonymous and nonsynonymous variations of <i>PRRT2</i> in worldwide populations.
a<p>Number of nonsynonymous and synonymous sites for PRRT2 are 668.5 and 231.5, respectively.</p>b<p>For the calculation of the pN/pS for Europe, the value of pS was set to 0.004 (the minimum of 1 synonymous variant observed in 159 individuals).</p
<i>PRRT2</i> variants identified in individuals from worldwide populations.
<p>A total of 961 individuals from the human genome diversity panel (HGDP) were sequenced for all <i>PRRT2</i> exons. The diameter of each circle is proportional to the number of individuals who were sequenced for <i>PRRT2</i>.</p
