A powerful and versatile colocalization test

Plos.org 

by Yangqing Deng, Wei Pan

Transcriptome-wide association studies (TWAS and PrediXcan) have been increasingly applied to detect associations between genetically predicted gene expressions and GWAS traits, which may suggest, however do not completely determine, causal genes for GWAS traits, due to the likely violation of their imposed strong assumptions for causal inference. Testing colocalization moves it closer to establishing causal relationships: if a GWAS trait and a gene’s expression share the same associated SNP... Читать дальше...

Climbing Escher’s stairs: A way to approximate stability landscapes in multidimensional systems

Plos.org 

by Pablo Rodríguez-Sínchez, Egbert H. Van Nes, Marten Scheffer

Stability landscapes are useful for understanding the properties of dynamical systems. These landscapes can be calculated from the system’s dynamical equations using the physical concept of scalar potential. Unfortunately, it is well known that for most systems with two or more state variables such potentials do not exist. Here we use an analogy with art to provide an accessible explanation of why this happens and briefly review some of the possible alternatives. Читать дальше...

Resist or perish: Fate of a microbial population subjected to a periodic presence of antimicrobial

Plos.org 

by Loïc Marrec, Anne-Florence Bitbol

The evolution of antimicrobial resistance can be strongly affected by variations of antimicrobial concentration. Here, we study the impact of periodic alternations of absence and presence of antimicrobial on resistance evolution in a microbial population, using a stochastic model that includes variations of both population composition and size, and fully incorporates stochastic population extinctions. We show that fast alternations of presence and absence... Читать дальше...
