Human Genetic Variation What is it? Where did it come from? How is it scored? What use is it?

DNA Self Replicating Molecule

Fidelity of DNA replication is nearly perfect Luckily for us, mistakes have been made

Mistakes in DNA The good, the bad and the indifferent

Time (generations) Frequency 100% 0 Fate of New Mutations

Genetic Variation SNP Single Nucleotide Polymorphism Duplications / Deletions

Why SNPs? Numerous Stable Easy to score In genes (sometimes)

GATACAATGCATCATA GATGCAATGTATCATA GATGCTATGCATCATA

Human SNPs 2 chromosomes differ ~1/1,000 bases more chromosomes more sites potential for 30 million variable sites

GATACAATGCATCATA GATGCAATGTATCATA Haplotype

Human Population History relatively young, ~ 100,000 years small populations isolated for long periods of time –estimated “effective breeding pool” - 10,000 individuals explosive expansion coincident with the spread of agriculture

Time (generations) Allele Frequency 1 0 4N e humans = 40,000 generations ~ 1 million years Fate of New Mutations

Human Genetic Variation What is it? Where did it come from? How is it scored?

SNP Genotyping Tools 330, ,000 SNPs per array Affymetrix Illumina Courtesy, S. Gabriel

When is a variant a polymorphism? Classical definition Two of more alleles Least frequent > 0.01 Functional consequences not relevant Popular definition Mutation = bad! Polymorphism = neutral Frequency not relevant
