Validation of human telomere length trans-ancestry meta-analysis association signals identifies <i>POP5</i> and <i>KBTBD6</i> as novel human telomere length regulation genes
2023-07-14
Abstract excerpt
Telomere length genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have become well-powered to detect novel genes in telomere length regulation. However, no prior work has validated these putative novel genes to confirm the contribution of GWAS loci to telomere length regulation. We conducted a trans-ancestry meta-analysis of 211,369 individuals. Through enrichment analyses of chromatin state and cell-type heritability we ide...
