A flexible summary-based colocalization method with application to the mucin Cystic Fibrosis lung disease modifier locus
2021-08-09
Abstract excerpt
Mucus obstruction is a central feature in the Cystic Fibrosis (CF) airways. A genome-wide association study (GWAS) of lung disease by the CF Gene Modifier Consortium (CFGMC) identified a significant locus containing two mucin genes, MUC20 and MUC4 . Expression quantitative trait locus (eQTL) analysis using human nasal epithelial (HNE) from 94 CF Canadians in the CFGMC demonstrated MUC4 eQTLs that mirrored the l...
