ANALYSIS OF GENETIC CHARACTERISTICS OF INFLUENZA VIRUS A/CHICKEN/CHELYABINSK/30/2019 H9N2 ISOLATED IN CHELYABINSK OBLAST by N. G. Zinyakov, Щю S. Osipova, P. B. Akshalova, V. Yu. Sosipatorova, A. V. Andriyasov, D. B. Andreychuk, I. A. Chvala

“…Amino acid substitutions were detected at the site within the receptor-binding domain as compared to the A/H9N2 infl uenza virus isolates obtained in Russia in 2018. The primary structure of the A/chicken/Chelyabinsk/30/2019 H9N2 isolate demonstrates a very high level of genetic similarity to the infl uenza virus isolate A/chicken/ Israel/215/2007 H9N2 used as a vaccine strain.…”

The GWAS-MAP platform for aggregation of results of genome-wide association studies and the GWAS-MAP|homo database of 70 billion genetic associations of human traits by T. I. Shashkova, D. D. Gorev, E. D. Pakhomov, A. S. Shadrina, S. Zh. Sharapov, Y. A. Tsepilov, L. C. Karssen, Y. S. Aulchenko

“…In order to demonstrate a typical application of the platform as an approach for extracting new biological knowledge and establishing mechanistic hypotheses, we analyzed varicose veins, a disease affecting on average every third adult in Russia. The results of analysis confirmed known epidemiologic associations for this disease and led us to propose a hypothesis that increased levels of MICB and CD209 proteins in human plasma may increase susceptibility to varicose veins.…”
