Genome-wide Association Studies-GWAS

15.8K
Genome-wide association studies or GWAS are used to identify whether common SNPs are associated with certain diseases. Suppose specific SNPs are more frequently observed in individuals with a particular disease than those without the disease. In that case, those SNPs are said to be associated with the disease. Chi-square analysis is performed to check the probability of the allele likely to be associated with the disease.
GWAS does not require the identification of the target gene involved in...

Genetic Screens02:46

Genetic Screens

5.8K
Genetic screens are tools used to identify genes and mutations responsible for phenotypes of interest. Genetic screens help identify individuals or a group of people at risk of developing  genetic diseases and help them with early intervention, targeted therapy, and reproductive options.
Forward genetic screens
Forward or “classical” genetic screens involve creating random mutations in an organism’s DNA using radiation, mutagens, or insertion of additional bases, which...

Alleles are different forms of the same gene. Humans and other diploid organisms inherit two alleles of every gene, one from each parent.

Epistasis Analysis01:09

Epistasis Analysis

5.9K
Although Mendel chose seven unrelated traits in peas to study gene segregation, most traits involve multiple gene interactions that create a spectrum of phenotypes. When the interaction of various genes or alleles at different locations influences a phenotype, this is called epistasis. Epistasis often involves one gene masking or interfering with the expression of another (antagonistic epistasis). Epistasis often occurs when different genes are part of the same biochemical pathway. The...

Trihybrid Crosses
Some of Mendel’s crosses examined three pairs of contrasting characteristics. Such a cross is called a trihybrid cross. A trihybrid cross is a combination of three individual monohybrid crosses. For example, plant height (tall vs. short), seed shape (round vs. wrinkled), and seed color (yellow vs. green).
The F1 generation plants of a trihybrid cross are heterozygous for all three traits and produce eight gametes. Upon self-fertilization, these gametes have an equal...

Area of Science:

  • Genetics
  • Computational Biology
  • Bioinformatics

Background:

  • Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) traditionally link single genetic variants to single phenotypes.
  • Modern GWAS often collect data on multiple phenotypes, creating opportunities to explore genetic variant-phenotype relationships from a new perspective.
  • Elucidating the phenotypic architecture of a genetic variant involves identifying combinations of phenotypes associated with it.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce ReverseGWAS, an algorithmic platform designed for analyzing large-scale, multi-phenotype GWAS.
  • To demonstrate the capability of ReverseGWAS in identifying complex phenotypic patterns associated with genetic variants.
  • To apply ReverseGWAS to real-world datasets and validate findings in independent cohorts.

Main Methods:

  • Development of the ReverseGWAS algorithmic platform for multi-phenotype GWAS analysis.
  • Testing ReverseGWAS on simulated data to assess its performance in identifying phenotype combinations under varying noise levels.
  • Application of ReverseGWAS to UK Biobank data, analyzing associations with autoimmune diseases and common ICD-10 codes.
  • Replication analysis of identified associations using the FinnGen independent cohort.

Main Results:

  • ReverseGWAS effectively identified logical combinations of phenotypes associated with genetic variants in simulated data, even with noise.
  • Analysis of UK Biobank data yielded 719 candidate associations for autoimmune diseases and 205 for common ICD-10 codes.
  • A significant majority of these candidate associations (546/719 and 111/205, respectively) were successfully replicated in the FinnGen cohort.

Conclusions:

  • ReverseGWAS is a powerful tool for uncovering the phenotypic architecture of genetic variants in large-scale multi-phenotype GWAS.
  • The platform demonstrates high performance in identifying and replicating complex genetic associations.
  • The findings highlight the potential of ReverseGWAS for discovering novel genotype-phenotype relationships in human diseases.
