SNP Set Association Analysis for Genome-Wide Association Studies
Genome-wide association study (GWAS) is a promising approach for identifying common genetic variants of the diseases on the basis of millions of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). In order to avoid low power caused by overmuch correction for multiple comparisons in single locus association study, some methods have been proposed by grouping SNPs together into a SNP set based on genomic feat...
متن کاملGSEA-SNP: applying gene set enrichment analysis to SNP data from genome-wide association studies
The power of genome-wide SNP association studies is limited, among others, by the large number of false positive test results. To provide a remedy, we combined SNP association analysis with the pathway-driven gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA), recently developed to facilitate handling of genome-wide gene expression data. The resulting GSEA-SNP method rests on the assumption that SNPs underlyi...
متن کاملTitle: Powerful SNP Set Analysis for Case-Control Genome Wide Association Studies Running Title: Powerful SNP Set Analysis
Genome wide association studies (GWAS) have emerged as popular tools for identifying genetic variants that are associated with disease risk. Standard analysis of a case-control GWAS involves assessing the association between each individual genotyped SNP and disease risk. However, this approach suffers from limited reproducibility and difficulties in detecting multi-SNP and epistatic effects. A...
متن کاملSNP set analysis for detecting disease association using exon sequence data
Rare variants are believed to play an important role in disease etiology. Recent advances in high-throughput sequencing technology enable investigators to systematically characterize the genetic effects of both common and rare variants. We introduce several approaches that simultaneously test the effects of common and rare variants within a single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) set based on logi...
متن کاملWeighted SNP Set Analysis in Genome-Wide Association Study
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) are popular for identifying genetic variants which are associated with disease risk. Many approaches have been proposed to test multiple single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in a region simultaneously which considering disadvantages of methods in single locus association analysis. Kernel machine based SNP set analysis is more powerful than single locus a...
