Estimating the <i>cis</i> -heritability of gene expression using single cell expression profiles controls false positive rate of eGene detection
2025-02-28
Abstract excerpt
For gene expression traits, cis -genetic heritability can quantify the strength of genetic regulation in particular cell types, elucidating the cell-type-specificity of disease variants and genes. To estimate gene expression heritability, standard models require a single gene expression value per individual, forcing data from single cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) experiments to be “pseudobulked”. Here, we show t...
