Meta-analysis of sex-specific genome-wide association studies.

Genetic epidemiology - 1 Dec 2010

Magi Reedik, Lindgren Cecilia M, Morris Andrew P

Abstract excerpt

Despite the success of genome-wide association studies, much of the genetic contribution to complex human traits is still unexplained. One potential source of genetic variation that may contribute to this "missing heritability" is that which differs in magnitude and/or direction between males and females, which could result from sexual dimorphism in gene expression. Such sex-differentiated effects are common in...
