Description

Data containing the results of a meta-analysis consisting of many GWAS whose phenotype of interest is LDL cholesterol. This file contains all of the information necessary to run the MixMAP function directly without any pre-processing.

Usage

1

Format

A data frame with 31825 observations and the following five variables:

MarkerName: a character with SNP name

GC.Pvalue: a numeric with p-values for each SNP

Coordinate: integer containing the base pair location of the SNP within the chromosome

Chr: integer containing the chromsome number of the SNP

Gene: A character with gene symbol

Details

This file contains all of the information needed to run the MixMAP function directly.

Source

Nature 466, 707–713 (05 August 2010) The p-values in this file are from the paper Teslovich Et Al. (2009) “Biological, clinical and population relevance of 95 loci for blood lipids" Nature 466: 707–713. The phenotype of interest was low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol. The SNPs chosen are a subset that are found in the IBC array and have a unique gene name associated with them.
