Genes with high network connectivity are enriched for disease heritability

2018-10-13

Abstract excerpt

Recent studies have highlighted the role of gene networks in disease biology. To formally assess this, we constructed a broad set of pathway, network, and pathway+network annotations and applied stratified LD score regression to 42 independent diseases and complex traits (average N =323K) to identify enriched annotations. First, we constructed annotations from 18,119 biological pathways, including 100kb windows a...
