Abstract excerpt
Blood metabolites are critical biomarkers linking genetic variation to diverse health outcomes, exhibiting significant variability across individuals. Here, we analyze and integrate whole-genome sequencing with plasma metabolomics to investigate the genetic architecture of 313 metabolic biomarkers in up to 199,138 UK Biobank participants. Through single-variant analyses, we identify 36,105 independent signals,...
