Abundant associations with gene expression complicate GWAS follow-up

With increasing cohort size and phenotyping, GWAS have identified more than 70,000 associated variants1. Because as many as 90% of GWAS variants fall within non-coding regions, most of them have unknown functional importance2. [...]LocusCompare integrates eQTLs from 48 tissues in the GTEx study (ver...

Shrnutí:	With increasing cohort size and phenotyping, GWAS have identified more than 70,000 associated variants1. Because as many as 90% of GWAS variants fall within non-coding regions, most of them have unknown functional importance2. [...]LocusCompare integrates eQTLs from 48 tissues in the GTEx study (version 7)3; eQTLs and splicing QTLs from coronary artery smooth muscle cells9 and retinal pigment epithelial cells10; and methylation QTLs from brain tissues11,12 and whole blood13.
