Enrichment of SNPs in Functional Categories Reveals Genes Affecting Complex Traits.

Human mutation - 1 Aug 2016

Zhao Huiying, Fan Dongsheng, Nyholt Dale R, Yang Yuedong

Abstract excerpt

Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have indicated potential to identify heritability of common complex phenotypes, but traditional approaches have limited ability to detect hiding signals because single SNP has weak effect size accounting for only a small fraction of overall phenotypic variations. To improve the power of GWAS, methods have been developed to identify truly associated genes by jointly testing...
