Evidence of epistasis in regions of long-range linkage disequilibrium across five complex diseases in the UK Biobank and eMERGE datasets
2022-10-21
Abstract excerpt
Leveraging linkage disequilibrium (LD) patterns as representative of population substructure enables the discovery of additive association signals in genome-wide association studies (GWAS). Standard GWAS are well-powered to interrogate additive models; however, new approaches are required to investigate other modes of inheritance such as dominance and epistasis. Epistasis, or non-additive interaction between genes...
