A novel statistical method for rare-variant association studies in general pedigrees

Both population-based and family-based designs are commonly used in genetic association studies to identify rare variants that underlie complex diseases. For any type of study design, the statistical power will be improved if rare variants can be enriched in the samples. Family-based designs, with ascertainment based on phenotype, may enrich the sample for causal rare variants and thus can be m...

Optimal tests for rare variant effects in sequencing association studies.

With development of massively parallel sequencing technologies, there is a substantial need for developing powerful rare variant association tests. Common approaches include burden and non-burden tests. Burden tests assume all rare variants in the target region have effects on the phenotype in the same direction and of similar magnitude. The recently proposed sequence kernel association test (S...

Detecting rare variant effects using extreme phenotype sampling in sequencing association studies.

In the increasing number of sequencing studies aimed at identifying rare variants associated with complex traits, the power of the test can be improved by guided sampling procedures. We confirm both analytically and numerically that sampling individuals with extreme phenotypes can enrich the presence of causal rare variants and can therefore lead to an increase in power compared to random sampl...

Searching for missing heritability: designing rare variant association studies.

Genetic studies have revealed thousands of loci predisposing to hundreds of human diseases and traits, revealing important biological pathways and defining novel therapeutic hypotheses. However, the genes discovered to date typically explain less than half of the apparent heritability. Because efforts have largely focused on common genetic variants, one hypothesis is that much of the missing he...

Family-based Bayesian collapsing method for rare-variant association study

In this study, we analyze the Genetic Analysis Workshop 18 data to identify the genes and underlying single-nucleotide polymorphisms on 11 chromosomes that exhibit significant association with systolic blood pressure. We propose a novel family-based method for rare-variant association detection based on the hierarchical Bayesian framework. The method controls spurious associations caused by pop...
