Looking at the SNP's in Clinvar, for example http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/11/, I see that the SNP NM_000410.3(HFE):c.193A>T (p.Ser65Cys) (also known as rs1800730) corresponds to the disease hemochromatosis. Since we have 2 alleles, that means the genotype possibilities are AA, AT, or TT. From the ClinVar data, is it possible to see which genotype are associated with the disease? I assume that since we have a A to T mutation, then T must be the pathogenic allele. So, does this mean TT is worse than AT which is worse than AA?

Hello,
whether AT or TT is needed to be pathogenic depends on the mode of inheritance. Is it dominant than it is enough if one allele has T, if it is recessive you need TT (or a second mutation in the gene on the other allele).
In clinvar you find under "Condition(s)" links to OMIM, where you can read about the inheritance.

The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist...-

Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...-
