Prioritization of SNPs for genome-wide association studies using an interaction model of genetic variation, gene expression, and trait variation.

Abstract excerpt

The identification of true causal loci to unravel the statistical evidence of genotype-phenotype correlations and the biological relevance of selected single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) is a challenging issue in genome-wide association studies (GWAS). Here, we introduced a novel method for the prioritization of SNPs based on p-values from GWAS. The method uses functional evidence from populations, including...
