A Bayesian Framework for Multiple Trait Colocalization from Summary Association Statistics

2017-06-26

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Motivation</h4> Most genetic variants implicated in complex diseases by genome-wide association studies (GWAS) are non-coding, making it challenging to understand the causative genes involved in disease. Integrating external information such as quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping of molecular traits (e.g., expression, methylation) is a powerful approach to identify the subset of GWAS signals explained by r...
