HLA*IMP—an integrated framework for imputing classical HLA alleles from SNP genotypes

TL;DR: The HLA*IMP as discussed by the authors algorithm combines local data preparation and QC with probabilistic imputation through a remote server, and achieves state-of-the-art performance.
Journal ArticleDOI

Whole-genome sequencing reveals host factors underlying critical COVID-19

TL;DR: The GenOMICC (Genetics of Mortality in Critical Care) study enables the comparison of genomes from individuals who are critically ill with those of population controls to find underlying disease mechanisms as mentioned in this paper .

Analysis of immune-related loci identifies 48 new susceptibility variants for multiple sclerosis

Ashley Beecham, +206 more
TL;DR: Using the ImmunoChip custom genotyping array, this article analyzed 14,498 subjects with multiple sclerosis and 24,091 healthy controls for 161,311 autosomal variants and identified 135 potentially associated regions (P < 1.0 × 10(-4)).
Journal ArticleDOI

The Power of Gene-Based Rare Variant Methods to Detect Disease-Associated Variation and Test Hypotheses About Complex Disease

TL;DR: The results imply that tens of thousands of individuals, extensive functional annotation, or highly targeted hypothesis testing will be required to confidently detect or exclude rare variant signals at complex disease loci.
