Cross-population enhancement of PrediXcan predictions with a gnomAD-based east Asian reference framework.

Abstract excerpt

Over the past decade, genome-wide association studies have identified thousands of variants significantly associated with complex traits. For each locus, gene expression levels are needed to further explore its biological functions. To address this, the PrediXcan algorithm leverages large-scale reference data to impute the gene expression level from single nucleotide polymorphisms, and thus the gene-trait...
