    Current genome-wide association studies do not yet capture sufficient diversity in populations and scope of phenotypes. To expand an atlas of genetic associations in non-European populations, we conducted 220 deep-phenotype genome-wide association studies (diseases, biomarkers and medication usage) in BioBank Japan (n = 179,000), by incorporating past medical history and text-mining of electronic medical records. Meta-analyses with the UK Biobank and FinnGen (n = 628,000) identified ~5,000 new loci, which improved the resolution of the genomic map of human traits. This atlas elucidated the landscape of pleiotropy as represented by the major histocompatibility complex locus, where we conducted HLA fine-mapping. Finally, we performed statistical decomposition of matrices of phenome-wid

  • Target genes, variants, tissues and transcriptional pathways influencing human serum urate levels - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 31578528

    ABSTRACT: Elevated serum urate levels cause gout and correlate with cardio-metabolic diseases via poorly understood mechanisms. We performed a trans-ethnic genome-wide association study of serum urate among 457,690 individuals, identifying 183 loci (147 novel) that improve prediction of gout in an independent cohort of 334,880 individuals. Serum urate showed significant genetic correlations with many cardio-metabolic traits, with genetic causality analyses supporting a substantial role for pleiotropy. Enrichment analysis, fine-mapping of urate-associated loci, and co-localization with gene expression in 47 tissues implicated kidney and liver as main target organs and prioritized potentially causal genes and variants, including the transcriptional master regulators in liver and kidney, HNF1
