Integrative Multi-Omics Approach for Improving Causal Gene Identification.

Abstract excerpt

Transcriptome-wide association studies (TWAS) have been widely used to identify thousands of likely causal genes for diseases and complex traits using predicted expression models. However, most existing TWAS methods rely on gene expression alone and overlook other regulatory mechanisms of gene expression, including DNA methylation and splicing, that contribute to the genetic basis of these complex traits and...
