Derived allele frequency

Publicly available genome data provides valuable information on the genetic variation patterns across different modern human populations. Neuropeptide genes are crucial to the nervous, immune, endocrine system, and physiological homeostasis as they play an essential role in communicating information in neuronal functions.

We present a new method, Fine-Mapping of Adaptive Variation (FineMAV), which combines population differentiation, derived allele frequency, and molecular functionality to prioritize positively selected candidate variants for functional follow-up. We calibrate and test FineMAV using eight experimentally validated “gold standard” positively selected variants and simulations.

Synonymous mutations are able to change the tAI (tRNA adaptation index) of a codon and consequently affect the local translation rate. Intuitively, one may hypothesize that those synonymous mutations which increase the tAI values are favored by natural selection.

The Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium law states that when a population is in equilibrium, the genotypic frequencies will be in the proportion p2 : 2pq: q2 . In a large random mating hypothetical population where the frequencies of alleles A1 and A2 are respectively is p and q, each genotype passes on both alleles with equal frequency over generations in the absence of evolutionary forces (Mutation, migration, and selection).
