Epigenome-wide association data implicate DNA methylation as an intermediary of genetic risk in rheumatoid arthritis

TL;DR: DNA methylation is a potential mediator of genetic risk for rheumatoid arthritis and is corrected for cellular heterogeneity by estimating and adjusting for cell-type proportions in blood-derived DNA samples and used mediation analysis to filter out associations likely to be a consequence of disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reproducible RNA-seq analysis using recount2.

TL;DR: This work presents a new generation of probabilistic models that combine RNAseq, a very simple and scalable approach to genome annotation, with real-time information about the “wear and tear” of the genome.

TL;DR: Analysis of high-coverage whole-genome sequences from 97,691 participants of diverse ancestries in the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute Trans-omics for Precision Medicine programme enables simultaneous identification of germline and somatic mutations that predispose individuals to clonal expansion of haematopoietic stem cells.

Assembly of a pan-genome from deep sequencing of 910 humans of African descent

TL;DR: A deeply sequenced dataset of 910 individuals, all of African descent, is used to construct a set of DNA sequences that is present in these individuals but missing from the reference human genome, demonstrating that the African pan-genome contains ~10% more DNA than the current human reference genome.
