Especially if you had a cesarean delivery, belly binding can be a useful tool during the postpartum recovery period. In contrast to a vaginal delivery, a C-section requires cutting through numerous layers of tissue and muscle. Belly binding can help to ensure that your incision heals properly.
Using the 1000 Genomes Project Phase 3 dataset, we identified all genetic variants within 2 kb windows centered on the gene transcription start site (eQTL) or CpG (mQTL) using a minor allele frequency >1%. The transcription factor dataset was from ENCODE ChIP-seq experiments, together with DNA bindings motifs identified within these regions as displayed by the ENCODE Factorbook repository [75]. We first compare transcription factor binding affinity between the reference and alternative allele using the FIMO tools in the MEME suite [48]. FIMO is a software tool for scanning DNA or protein sequences with motifs described as position-specific scoring matrices. The program computes a log-likelihood ratio score for each position in a given sequence database, uses established dynamic programming methods to convert this score to a P-value and then applies false discovery rate analysis to estimate a q-value for each position in the given sequence. FIMO output a list of significant binding site for both reference and alternative allele. However, FIMO only provides with qualitative information and does not allow for significant quantification of the difference in binding affinity between the two alleles. Therefore, we used atSNP [49] to quantify the difference between the reference and alternative allele for the binding site identified by FIMO. It uses ENCODE motifs and JASPAR motifs to evaluate the regulatory potential of the SNPs. It outputs for each SNP the significance of the match to each position specific matrix with both the reference and the alternative allele and also the significance of the change in these match scores. atSNP relies on sampling algorithm with a first-order Markov model for the background nucleotide sequences to test the significance of affinity score and SNP-driven changes in these scores. atSNP is an R package.
