Amino Acid Variation in HLA Class II Proteins Is a Major Determinant of Humoral Response to Common Viruses

Jacques Fellay, Istvan Bartha, Christian Hammer, Paul Jack Mc Laren

The magnitude of the human antibody response to viral antigens is highly variable. To explore the human genetic contribution to this variability, we performed genome-wide association studies of the immunoglobulin G response to 14 pathogenic viruses in 2,36 ...

Genome-wide association study of virologic response with efavirenz-containing or abacavir-containing regimens in AIDS clinical trials group protocols

Paul Jack Mc Laren

Background Efavirenz and abacavir are components of recommended first-line regimens for HIV-1 infection. We used genome-wide genotyping and clinical data to explore genetic associations with virologic failure among patients randomized to efavirenz-containi ...

The Characteristics of Heterozygous Protein Truncating Variants in the Human Genome

Jacques Fellay, Amalio Telenti, Istvan Bartha, Nimisha Chaturvedi, Paul Jack Mc Laren

Sequencing projects have identified large numbers of rare stop-gain and frameshift variants in the human genome. As most of these are observed in the heterozygous state, they test a gene's tolerance to haploinsufficiency and dominant loss of function. We a ...

Identification of potential HIV restriction factors by combining evolutionary genomic signatures with functional analyses

Amalio Telenti, Paul Jack Mc Laren, Danielle Thompson, Daniel Sauter, Jérémie Perreaud

Background: Known antiretroviral restriction factors are encoded by genes that are under positive selection pressure, induced during HIV-1 infection, up-regulated by interferons, and/or interact with viral proteins. To identify potential novel restriction ...

Human genetic variation in HIV disease: beyond genome-wide association studies

Jacques Fellay, Paul Jack Mc Laren

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Rapid expansion of genomic technologies has resulted in an unprecedented ability to interrogate the impact of human genetic variation on disease. HIV-1 infection is a unique model for studying this impact because host genetic variation i ...

The impact of host genetic variation on infection with HIV-1

Paul Jack Mc Laren

The outcome after infection with the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) is a complex phenotype determined by interactions among the pathogen, the human host and the surrounding environment. An impact of host genetic variation on HIV-1 susceptibili ...

Nature Publishing Group2015

Polymorphisms of large effect explain the majority of the host genetic contribution to variation of HIV-1 virus load

Jacques Fellay, Amalio Telenti, Istvan Bartha, Paul Jack Mc Laren

Previous genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of HIV-1-infected populations have been underpowered to detect common variants with moderate impact on disease outcome and have not assessed the phenotypic variance explained by genome-wide additive effects. ...

A Novel Acute Retroviral Syndrome Severity Score Predicts the Key Surrogate Markers for HIV-1 Disease Progression

Jacques Fellay, Paul Jack Mc Laren

Objective: Best long-term practice in primary HIV-1 infection (PHI) remains unknown for the individual. A risk-based scoring system associated with surrogate markers of HIV-1 disease progression could be helpful to stratify patients with PHI at highest ris ...

Disentangling human tolerance and resistance against HIV

Jacques Fellay, Amalio Telenti, Paul Jack Mc Laren

In ecology, "disease tolerance" is defined as an evolutionary strategy of hosts against pathogens, characterized by reduced or absent pathogenesis despite high pathogen load. To our knowledge, tolerance has to date not been quantified and disentangled from ...

HLA class I and KIR genes do not protect against HIV type 1 infection in highly exposed uninfected individuals with hemophilia A

Jacques Fellay, Paul Jack Mc Laren

A recent genome-wide association study (GWAS) involving patients with hemophilia A who were exposed to but uninfected with human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) did not reveal genetic variants associated with resistance to HIV-1 infection, beyond hom ...
