    ABSTRACT: Most genetic susceptibility to cutaneous melanoma remains to be discovered. Meta-analysis genome-wide association study (GWAS) of 36,760 melanoma cases (67% newly-genotyped) and 375,188 controls identified 54 significant loci with 68 independent SNPs. Analysis of risk estimates across geographical regions and host factors suggests the acral melanoma subtype is uniquely unrelated to pigmentation. Combining this meta-analysis with nevus count and hair color GWAS, and transcriptome association approaches, uncovered 31 potential secondary loci, for a total of 85 cutaneous melanoma susceptibility loci. These findings provide substantial insights into cutaneous melanoma genetic architecture, reinforcing the importance of nevogenesis, pigmentation, and telomere maintenance together with

  • Leveraging Polygenic Functional Enrichment to Improve GWAS Power. - American journal of human genetics (2019) · Kichaev G, Bhatia G, Loh PR, Gazal S, Burch K, Freund MK, Schoech A, Pasaniuc B, Price AL · PubMed 30595370

    Functional genomics data has the potential to increase GWAS power by identifying SNPs that have a higher prior probability of association. Here, we introduce a method that leverages polygenic functional enrichment to incorporate coding, conserved, regulatory, and LD-related genomic annotations into association analyses. We show via simulations with real genotypes that the method, functionally informed novel discovery of risk loci (FINDOR), correctly controls the false-positive rate at null loci and attains a 9%-38% increase in the number of independent associations detected at causal loci, depending on trait polygenicity and sample size. We applied FINDOR to 27 independent complex traits and diseases from the interim UK Biobank release (average N = 130K). Averaged across traits, we attaine

  • Genome-wide study of hair colour in UK Biobank explains most of the SNP heritability - Nature communications (2019) · Morgan MD, Pairo-Castineira E, Rawlik K, Canela-Xandri O, Rees J, Sims D, Tenesa A, Jackson IJ · PubMed 30531825

    ABSTRACT: Natural hair colour within European populations is a complex genetic trait. Previous work has established that MC1R variants are the principal genetic cause of red hair colour, but with variable penetrance. Here, we have extensively mapped the genes responsible for hair colour in the white, British ancestry, participants in UK Biobank. MC1R only explains 73% of the SNP heritability for red hair in UK Biobank, and in fact most individuals with two MC1R variants have blonde or light brown hair. We identify other genes contributing to red hair, the combined effect of which accounts for ~90% of the SNP heritability. Blonde hair is associated with over 200 genetic variants and we find a continuum from black through dark and light brown to blonde and account for 73% of the SNP heritabi

  • Genome-wide association meta-analysis of individuals of European ancestry identifies new loci explaining a substantial fraction of hair color variation and heritability - Nature genetics (2019) · Hysi PG, Valdes AM, Liu F, Furlotte NA, Evans DM, Bataille V, Visconti A, Hemani G, McMahon G, Ring SM, Smith GD, Duffy DL, Zhu G, Gordon SD, Medland SE, Lin BD, Willemsen G, Jan Hottenga J, Vuckovic D, Girotto G, Gandin I, Sala C, Concas MP, Brumat M, Gasparini P, Toniolo D, Cocca M, Robino A, Yazar S, Hewitt AW, Chen Y, Zeng C, Uitterlinden AG, Ikram MA, Hamer MA, van Duijn CM, Nijsten T, Mackey DA, Falchi M, Boomsma DI, Martin NG, Hinds DA, Kayser M, Spector TD · PubMed 29662168

    ABSTRACT: Hair color is one of the most recognizable visual traits in European populations and is under strong genetic control. Here we report the results of a genome-wide association study meta-analysis of almost 300,000 participants of European descent. We identified 123 autosomal and one X-chromosome loci significantly associated with hair color; all but 13 are novel. Collectively, SNPs associated with hair color within these loci explain 34.6% of red hair, 24.8% of blond hair and 26.1% of black hair heritability in the study populations. These results confirm the polygenic nature of complex phenotypes and improve our understanding of melanin pigment metabolism in humans.
