“RNASeq analyses suggest Y-chromosome gene expression differs between brain and blood tissues but does not differ significantly in cases, controls or specific haplogroups. Overall, we did not find any strong associations between Y-chromosome genetics and Parkinson's disease, suggesting the explanation for the increased prevalence in males may lie elsewhere.” #isogg #dna #YDNA #Parkinsons #haplogroups #geneadons

Analysis of Y chromosome haplogroups in Parkinson's disease - PubMed

Parkinson's disease is a complex neurodegenerative disorder that is about 1.5 times more prevalent in males than females. Extensive work has been done to identify the genetic risk factors behind Parkinson's disease on autosomes and more recently on Chromosome X, but work remains to be done on the ma …

And we have just discovered another new Y-DNA haplogroup R-FTD79893 that can be traced back in genealogic time to the area around Osnabruck, Lower Saxony.

Last names are Burlage, Stottmann, and Hollenkamp.

Origin is near Ankum, Lower Saxony.

A distant Derby cousin and I recently got our Big Y-700 results back. I'm hoping other cousins from the last few centuries to millennium will test too to refine the results, but for now – behold our haplogroup! https://discover.familytreedna.com/y-dna/I-FTF58625

The Journey of one 4000 Year old Celtic Y-SNP RFGC22501: Ten Years of Discovery

Background To recap my first dive into Genetic Genealogy was giving my husband a Family Tree DNA Y37 kit for Valentine’s Day in 2011. It was purely out of frustration, as traditional genealog…

So I'm getting tantalisingly close, but still waiting for that crucial first estimate of when the ancestor I share with some Derbies in America was born.

I think we're close to some of the connections on paper, but it will be hard to get any closer. DNA is a nifty extra tool to see if I'm on the right track.

A while back I upgraded to the Big Y-700 test with FamilyTreeDNA. Problem is, it takes months for the DNA sequencing to be done, then weeks to get a broad haplogroup (most recent common ancestor a few thousand years ago), then a more precise haplogroup (more recent common ancestor), then a list of matches and an estimate of how many years ago the most recent common ancestor was born.

Genetic genealogy reveals true Y haplogroup of House of Bourbon contradicting recent identification of the presumed remains of two French Kings

Genetic analysis strongly increases the opportunity to identify skeletal remains or other biological samples from historical figures. However, validation of this identification is essential and should be done by DNA typing of living relatives. Based on ...

A new 🧬 adventure begins. Y not? mito's well.

(I've had my autosomal DNA results transferred to FamilyTreeDNA for a while now, but I'd like to get the hang of Y-DNA and mtDNA matches, and with the recent sale, I decided: why not start with myself?)

#familytreedna is nailing it this year for me! After the addition of the #yDNA Discovery tool and the new Globetrekker, yesterday, they also announced something for their autosomal DNA customers: a yDNA-haplogroup in the Metal Age https://blog.familytreedna.com/y-dna-haplogroups-family-finder/
Introducing Y-DNA Haplogroups for Family Finder Customers

This blog is about a new feature that will be added to Family Finder in the coming weeks. Customers with existing Family Finder results will receive an email announcement when the feature is released, as well as an email notification once their haplogroup has been added to their results.

Y chromosome sequence and epigenomic reconstruction across human populations - Communications Biology

This study generates genome assemblies for seven major haplogroups of the human Y chromosome at a unique resolution that overcomes the structurally complex regions within. These data enable the detection and profiling of epigenetic modifications among the considered haplogroups.
