Evaluating 17 methods incorporating biological function with GWAS summary statistics to accelerate discovery demonstrates a tradeoff between high sensitivity and high positive predictive value
Method selection We reviewed the published literature through February 2020 to identify methods that met the following criteria: i. Descriptively categorized as (a) annotation-based; (b) pleiotropy-based; or (c) eQTL-based. ii. Utilized GWAS summary statistics, as opposed to individual-level genotype data. iii. Implemented using freely-available software or packages. iv. Provided either…
TCGA/Broad Institute CNV Files Segment Mean
TCGA/Broad Institute CNV Files Segment Mean 3 Hello everybody, I am trying to analyse CNV data from TCGA to get a measure of overall CNV per patient. When I download the Level 3 files taken from the SNP6 array, there is a column in the file called Segment_Mean. (Example at…
Genetic data QC prior to imputation
Hi there, Should SNPs that have this sort of name ‘exm_….” be removed from genetic data at the QC stage. Not necessarily, they used this ID cause it was part of their ExomeSNP array, probably because there was no RSID at the time, for example this one: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/projects/SNP/snp_ss.cgi?subsnp_id=ss1958317049 Should SNPs…
Integrative lncRNA, circRNA, and mRNA analysis reveals expression profiles of six forensic body fluids/tissue
RNAs have attracted much attention in forensic body fluid/tissue identification (BFID) due to their tissue-specific expression characteristics. Among RNAs, long RNAs (e.g., mRNA) have a higher probability of containing more polymorphic sites that can be used to assign the specific donor of the body fluid/tissue. However, few studies have characterized…
Pruning with –indep-pairwise with plink 1.9

snp database using annotation
snp database using annotation 1 hello For 550,000 SNPs, we only have the chromosomal location or rs number. I would like to annotate ref/alt allele, strand, and frequency information for 550,000 SNPs. I downloaded the GCF_000001405.40.gz file, but there is no strand information. I am curious about a database that…
Regarding using a “pseudo reference genome” for aligning short reads
Regarding using a “pseudo reference genome” for aligning short reads 0 Hello, my lab is involved in variety identification of plants. Usually we have over 200 varieties which we barcode during the genotyping by sequencing run. This is primarily a “radseq” method, i.e. it is a reduced representation of a…
