Identification of putative effector genes across the GWAS Catalog using molecular quantitative trait loci from 68 tissues and cell types
2019-10-17
Abstract excerpt
Identifying the effector genes from genome-wide association studies (GWAS) is a crucial step towards understanding the biological mechanisms underlying complex traits and diseases. Colocalization of expression and protein quantitative trait loci (eQTL and pQTL, hereafter collectively called “xQTL”) can be effective for mapping associations to genes in many loci. However, existing colocalization methods require ful...
