High-quality read-based phasing of cystic fibrosis cohort informs genetic understanding of disease modification

Scott Mastromatteo, Angela Chen, Jiafen Gong, Fan Lin et al. • HGG Advances (2023)

Summary: Phasing of heterozygous alleles is critical for interpretation of cis-effects of disease-relevant variation. We sequenced 477 individuals with cystic fibrosis (CF) using linked-read sequencing, which display an average phase block ...

On the Gauss Map of Surfaces of Revolution with Lightlike Axis in Minkowski 3-Space

Minghao Jin, Donghe Pei, Shu Xu • Journal of Function Spaces and Applications (2013)

By studying the Gauss map G and Laplace operator Δh of the second fundamental form h, we will classify surfaces of revolution with a lightlike axis in 3-dimensional Minkowski space and also obtain the surface of Enneper of the 2nd kind, the...
