Identification of novel type 1 and type 2 diabetes genes by co-localization of human islet eQTL and GWAS variants with colocRedRibbon
2024-10-21
Abstract excerpt
Over 1,000 distinct genetic variants have been associated with diabetes risk by genome-wide association studies (GWAS) but for most their functional impact is unknown and less than 15% of the diabetes GWAS variants have been shown in expression quantitative trait locus (eQTL) studies to alter gene expression in pancreatic islets. To fill this gap, we developed a new co-localization pipeline, called colocRedRibbon,...
