Low-Frequency Synonymous Coding Variation in CYP2R1 Has Large Effects on Vitamin D Levels and Risk of Multiple Sclerosis. - American journal of human genetics (2017) · Manousaki D, Dudding T, Haworth S, Hsu YH, Liu CT, Medina-Gómez C, Voortman T, van der Velde N, Melhus H, Robinson-Cohen C, Cousminer DL, Nethander M, Vandenput L, Noordam R, Forgetta V, Greenwood CMT, Biggs ML, Psaty BM, Rotter JI, Zemel BS, Mitchell JA, Taylor B, Lorentzon M, Karlsson M, Jaddoe VVW, Tiemeier H, Campos-Obando N, Franco OH, Utterlinden AG, Broer L, van Schoor NM, Ham AC, Ikram MA, Karasik D, de Mutsert R, Rosendaal FR, den Heijer M, Wang TJ, Lind L, Orwoll ES, Mook-Kanamori DO, Michaëlsson K, Kestenbaum B, Ohlsson C, Mellström D, de Groot LCPGM, Grant SFA, Kiel DP, Zillikens MC, Rivadeneira F, Sawcer S, Timpson NJ, Richards JB · PubMed 28757204
Vitamin D insufficiency is common, correctable, and influenced by genetic factors, and it has been associated with risk of several diseases. We sought to identify low-frequency genetic variants that strongly increase the risk of vitamin D insufficiency and tested their effect on risk of multiple sclerosis, a disease influenced by low vitamin D concentrations. We used whole-genome sequencing data from 2,619 individuals through the UK10K program and deep-imputation data from 39,655 individuals genotyped genome-wide. Meta-analysis of the summary statistics from 19 cohorts identified in CYP2R1 the low-frequency (minor allele frequency = 2.5%) synonymous coding variant g.14900931G>A (p.Asp120Asp) (rs117913124[A]), which conferred a large effect on 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD) levels (-0.43 SD of

A scalable variational inference approach for increased mixed-model association power - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 39789286
ABSTRACT: The rapid growth of modern biobanks is creating new opportunities for large-scale genome-wide association studies (GWASs) and the analysis of complex traits. However, performing GWASs on millions of samples often leads to trade-offs between computational efficiency and statistical power, reducing the benefits of large-scale data collection efforts. We developed Quickdraws, a method that increases association power in quantitative and binary traits without sacrificing computational efficiency, leveraging a spike-and-slab prior on variant effects, stochastic variational inference and graphics processing unit acceleration. We applied Quickdraws to 79 quantitative and 50 binary traits in 405,088 UK Biobank samples, identifying 4.97% and 3.25% more associations than REGENIE and 22.71%
