Statistical selection strategy for risk and protective rare variants associated with complex traits.

Abstract excerpt

In genetic association studies with deep sequencing data, it is a challenging statistical problem to precisely locate rare variants associated with complex diseases or traits due to the limited number of observed genetic mutations. In particular, both risk and protective rare variants can be present in the same gene or genetic region. There currently exist very few statistical methods to separate casual rare...
