A rare variant analysis framework using public genotype summary counts to prioritize disease-predisposition genes.

Abstract excerpt

Sequencing cases without matched healthy controls hinders prioritization of germline disease-predisposition genes. To circumvent this problem, genotype summary counts from public data sets can serve as controls. However, systematic inflation and false positives can arise if confounding factors are not controlled. We propose a framework, consistent summary counts based rare variant burden test (CoCoRV), to address...
