The Trinity Biobank was established in 2005 to serve the needs of researchers in the area of genetic epidemiology, population genetics and pharmacogenomics. Its services are available to researchers not only in Trinity College but to other institutions at home and abroad. We provide an automated DNA extraction service purifying large volumes blood (up to 10mL whole blood) and tissue DNA for archival and other purposes. In addition it makes available purified DNA and associated GWAS data from 2000 healthy donors for research use. A key requirement for reliable downstream use of DNA is purity and strand size. The quality of DNA in blood and tissue deteriorates upon storage without purification even at -80 degrees C. We ensure rapid turnaround of biological samples through automated extraction using the Qiagen Autopure system based on optimized ''salting out'' chemistry. The purified DNA sample may then be stored safely at -20 degrees C without deterioration thus freeing up valuable -80 degree C freezer space and the associated capital and maintenance cost as well as security and lab space provision. Automated DNA extraction is particularly suitable for high-throughput sample processing called for in epidemiological studies or simply for clearing sample inventory backlogs. The Trinity Biobank distributes control DNA to researchers as part of its remit to enhance the level of research activity and to synergize molecular medicine research nationally and internationally. The buffy coat collection has been made possible with the cooperation of the Irish Blood Transfusion Service (IBTS). An important requirement to access the collection is that the use of the samples relates only to ethically-approved research and to specifically-nominated research projects. The DNA collection consists of high quality human genomic DNA. Each of the available 2,000 samples is from a single individual and each sample comes with the age and gender data of the donor. The buffy coat sample is derived from the total white cell compliment (50mL buffy coat) of a blood donation (c 400mL). We will endeavor to fulfill samples number requests based on age and gender as best as possible. This collection has also been genotyped using the Affymetrix Genome-Wide Human SNP Array 6.0, featuring 1.8 million genetic markers, including more than 906,600 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and more than 946,000 probes for the detection of copy number variation (CNV). The DNA comes available as a 100ng/uL in 100uL of TE Buffer, ie in 10ug amounts in a separate screw-cap ampoule. The ampoules are shipped in 100-tube boxes (Sarstedt). Corresponding plasma (ACD) is also available on request. Genotype data is supplied in PLINK binary PED files format (http://pngu.mgh.harvard.edu/~purcell/plink/ ).

http://www.aps.uoguelph.ca/~msargol/qmsim/

Software application designed to simulate a wide range of genetic architectures and population structures in livestock. Large scale genotyping data and complex pedigrees can be efficiently simulated. QMSim is a family based simulator, which can also take into account predefined evolutionary features, such as LD, mutation, bottlenecks and expansions. The simulation is basically carried out in two steps: In the first step, a historical population is simulated to establish mutation-drift equilibrium and, in the second step, recent population structures are generated, which can be complex. QMSim allows for a wide range of parameters to be incorporated in the simulation models in order to produce appropriate simulated data. (entry from Genetic Analysis Software)

http://dlin.web.unc.edu/software/SNPMStat/

A command-line program for the statistical analysis of SNP-disease association in case-control/cohort/cross-sectional studies with potentially missing genotype data. SNPMStat allows the user to estimate or test SNP effects and SNP-environment interactions by maximizing the (observed-data) likelihood that properly accounts for phase uncertainty, study design and gene-environment dependence. For SNPs without missing data, the program performs the standard association analysis. For typed SNPs with missing data or untyped SNPs, the program performs the maximum-likelihood analysis.

http://www.bios.unc.edu/~lin/software/MAOS/

Software application that implements valid and efficient statistical methods for meta-analysis of genomewide association studies with overlapping subjects. The current release performs logistic regression analysis of individual level data under the additive mode of inheritance. Data from genome-wide association studies are often analyzed jointly for the purposes of combining information from multiple studies of the same disease or comparing results across different disorders. In many instances, the same subjects appear in multiple studies. Failure to account for overlapping subjects can greatly inflate type I error when combining results from multiple studies of the same disease and can drastically reduce power when comparing results across different disorders.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on July 31,2025. Collect, store, and distribute genetic samples from cases and controls of type 1 diabetes and diabetic nephropathy for investigator-driven research into the genetic basis of diabetic nephropathy. As the risk of kidney complications in type 1 diabetes appears to have a considerable genetic component, this study assembled a large data resource for researchers attempting to identify causative genetic variants. The types of data collected allowed traditional case-control testing, a rapid and often powerful approach, and family-based analysis, a robust approach that is not influenced by population substructure.
