Unlabelled: To date, it has been established that the patient's genotype plays a significant role in the formation of trehalase enzymopathy: the level of enzyme activity decreases when the G→A allele replacement occurs in the rs2276064 locus of the TREH gene. To assess the prevalence of trehalase deficiency, extensive population-based studies are needed. Clinical observations show that the reduced activity of bowel trehalase is more common in the Arctic than in European populations.

Objectives: The collection of genotype data was conducted as an essential part of a pivotal research project with the goal of examining the genetic variability of skin, hair, and iris color among the Kazakh population. The data has practical application in the field of forensic DNA phenotyping (FDA). Due to the limited size of forensic databases from Central Asia (Kazakhstan), it is practically impossible to obtain an individual identification result based on forensic profiling of short tandem repeats (STRs).

The gene pool of the East Caucasus, encompassing modern-day Azerbaijan and Dagestan populations, was studied alongside adjacent populations using 83 Y-chromosome SNP markers. The analysis of genetic distances among 18 populations ( = 2216) representing Nakh-Dagestani, Altaic, and Indo-European language families revealed the presence of three components (Steppe, Iranian, and Dagestani) that emerged in different historical periods. The Steppe component occurs only in Karanogais, indicating a recent medieval migration of Turkic-speaking nomads from the Eurasian steppe.

Article Synopsis
  • The Baikal seal is the only freshwater pinniped species, and researchers are investigating how and when it arrived in Lake Baikal, which is far from its Arctic Ocean origins.
  • A genetic analysis was conducted comparing the Baikal seal to three marine pinniped species, revealing conserved chromosomal features but lower genetic diversity in the Baikal seal.
  • The study suggests the Baikal seal experienced a significant population decline during environmental changes, likely related to ice sheet shifts, but stabilized after migrating to Lake Baikal around 3 to 0.3 million years ago.
