Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: Despite the general success of genome-wide association studies, much heritability remains unidentified in many disease states. Some of this 'missing' heritability may lie in epistatic interactions among multiple loci, which are typically ignored. We utilized a method for simultaneous evaluation of epistatic interactions between allelic variations within genes confined to a single pathway, which we have...
