Determinants of functional burden pleiotropy and gene dosage responses across human traits

Sayeh Kazem, Kuldeep Kumar, Jane Yang, Florian Bénitière, Guillaume Huguet, Josephine Mollon, Thomas Renne, Laura M. Schultz, Emma E. M. Knowles, Worrawat Engchuan, Omar Shanta, Bhooma Thiruvahindrapuram, Jeffrey R. MacDonald, Celia M.T. Greenwood, Stephen W. Scherer, , Sébastien Jacquemont

The paper develops FunBurd to analyze gene dosage effects on 43 traits in UK-Biobank, finding pleiotropy and non-monotonic responses linked to genetic constraint and brain-specific mechanisms.

Genomic deletion and duplication effects on cognitive ability lie at the opposing ends of the cortical sensorimotor-association hierarchy

Kuldeep Kumar, Sayeh Kazem, Jane Yang, Florian Bénitière, Mame Seynabou Diop, Benjamin Clark, Guillaume Huguet, Worrawat Engchuan, Jakub Kopál, Thomas Renne, Omar Shanta, Bhooma Thiruvahindrapuram, Jeffrey R. MacDonald, Josephine Mollon, Laura M. Schultz, , Sébastien Jacquemont

The paper develops a method to analyze genomic deletions and duplications across the cerebral cortex and finds opposing effects on cognitive ability depending on gene expression patterns in different cortical regions.
