This project aims to generate whole genome sequence (WGS) for 100 unrelated DNA samples from Kazakhstan and 100 unrelated DNA samples from Uzbekistan with the samples in each country equally split between males and females. The WGS data will be used to impute into much larger Kazakh
and Uzbek datasets in which genome-wide association studies (GWAS) will be conducted and will also provide more information on rare variants in these Central Asian populations. In addition, the WGS data will be analysed to determine the genetic and genomic characteristics and peculiarities of these two Central Asian populations to provide background information and infrastructure for future genetic studies in Central Asia and to fill a gap in worldwide information as Central Asia is not currently adequately represented in large genetic resources such as HapMap, 1000Genomes and the Human Genome Diversity panel.
