kTWAS: Integrating kernel-machine with transcriptome-wide association studies improves statistical power and reveals novel genes

2020-06-29

Abstract excerpt

The power of genotype-phenotype association mapping studies increases greatly when contributions from multiple variants in a focal region are meaningfully aggregated. Currently, there are two popular categories of variant aggregation methods. Transcriptome-wide association studies (TWAS) represent a category of emerging methods that select variants based on their effect on gene expressions, providing pretrained li...
