SNPTransformer: a lightweight toolkit for genome-wide association studies.

Genomics, proteomics & bioinformatics

Dong C.
PMID: 21382596
Genomics Proteomics Bioinformatics. 2010 Dec;8(4):268-73. doi: 10.1016/S1672-0229(10)60029-0.

High-throughput genotyping chips have produced huge datasets for genome-wide association studies (GWAS) that have contributed greatly to discovering susceptibility genes for complex diseases. There are two strategies for performing data analysis for GWAS. One strategy is to use open-source...

GWAPower: a statistical power calculation software for genome-wide association studies with quantitative traits.

BMC genetics

Feng S, Wang S, Chen CC, Lan L.
PMID: 21255436
BMC Genet. 2011 Jan 21;12:12. doi: 10.1186/1471-2156-12-12.

BACKGROUND: In designing genome-wide association (GWA) studies it is important to calculate statistical power. General statistical power calculation procedures for quantitative measures often require information concerning summary statistics of distributions such as mean and variance. However, with genetic studies,...

FAPI: Fast and accurate P-value Imputation for genome-wide association study.

European journal of human genetics : EJHG

Kwan JS, Li MX, Deng JE, Sham PC.
PMID: 26306642
Eur J Hum Genet. 2016 May;24(5):761-6. doi: 10.1038/ejhg.2015.190. Epub 2015 Aug 26.

Imputing individual-level genotypes (or genotype imputation) is now a standard procedure in genome-wide association studies (GWAS) to examine disease associations at untyped common genetic variants. Meta-analysis of publicly available GWAS summary statistics can allow more disease-associated loci to be...

Towards an integrative genomics of lung function.

The Lancet. Respiratory medicine

Cho MH.
PMID: 26404119

A general approach for combining diverse rare variant association tests provides improved robustness across a wider range of genetic architectures.

European journal of human genetics : EJHG

Greco B, Hainline A, Arbet J, Grinde K, Benitez A, Tintle N.
PMID: 26508571
Eur J Hum Genet. 2016 May;24(5):767-73. doi: 10.1038/ejhg.2015.194. Epub 2015 Oct 28.

The widespread availability of genome sequencing data made possible by way of next-generation technologies has yielded a flood of different gene-based rare variant association tests. Most of these tests have been published because they have superior power for particular...

P < 5 × 10(-8) has emerged as a standard of statistical significance for genome-wide association studies.

Journal of clinical epidemiology

Jannot AS, Ehret G, Perneger T.
PMID: 25666886
J Clin Epidemiol. 2015 Apr;68(4):460-5. doi: 10.1016/j.jclinepi.2015.01.001. Epub 2015 Jan 09.

OBJECTIVES: In genome-wide association studies (GWASs), the practice regarding the choice of thresholds of significance and of thresholds used to include single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in a further validation stage is not well known. Here, we performed a systematic...

DISEASES: text mining and data integration of disease-gene associations.

Methods (San Diego, Calif.)

Pletscher-Frankild S, Pallejà A, Tsafou K, Binder JX, Jensen LJ.
PMID: 25484339
Methods. 2015 Mar;74:83-9. doi: 10.1016/j.ymeth.2014.11.020. Epub 2014 Dec 05.

Text mining is a flexible technology that can be applied to numerous different tasks in biology and medicine. We present a system for extracting disease-gene associations from biomedical abstracts. The system consists of a highly efficient dictionary-based tagger for...

Exploring genetic susceptibility to cancer in diverse populations.

Current opinion in genetics & development

Haiman CA, Stram DO.
PMID: 20359883
Curr Opin Genet Dev. 2010 Jun;20(3):330-5. doi: 10.1016/j.gde.2010.02.007. Epub 2010 Mar 30.

Incidence rates for many cancers differ markedly by race/ethnicity and furthering our understanding of the genetic and environmental causes of such disparities is a scientific and public health need. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) are widely acknowledged to provide important...

iHAT: interactive hierarchical aggregation table for genetic association data.

BMC bioinformatics

Heinrich J, Vehlow C, Battke F, Jäger G, Weiskopf D, Nieselt K.
PMID: 22607364
BMC Bioinformatics. 2012;13:S2. doi: 10.1186/1471-2105-13-S8-S2. Epub 2012 May 18.

In the search for single-nucleotide polymorphisms which influence the observable phenotype, genome wide association studies have become an important technique for the identification of associations between genotype and phenotype of a diverse set of sequence-based data. We present a...

Genome-wide analysis of fitness data and its application to improve metabolic models.

High-throughput technologies have revolutionized medical research. The advent of genotyping arrays enabled large-scale genome-wide association studies and methods for examining global transcript levels, which gave rise to the field of "integrative genetics". Other omics technologies, such as proteomics and...
