Exploring the phenotypic consequences of tissue specific gene expression variation inferred from GWAS summary statistics

Alvaro Barbeira, Scott P. Dickinson, Rodrigo Bonazzola, Jiamao Zheng, Heather E. Wheeler, Jason M. Torres, Eric S. Torstenson, Kaanan P. Shah, Tzintzuni Garcia, Todd L. Edwards, Eli Stahl, Laura M. Huckins, François Aguet, Kristin Ardlie, Beryl B. Cummings, , Benjamin J. Strober

The paper develops S-PrediXcan to compute gene expression associations from GWAS summary data and applies it to 44 GTEx tissues and 100+ phenotypes, finding tissue-specific effects and colocalized associations.
