Journal ArticleDOI

The Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) project

John T. Lonsdale, +129 more
- 29 May 2013 - 
TL;DR: The Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) project is described, which will establish a resource database and associated tissue bank for the scientific community to study the relationship between genetic variation and gene expression in human tissues.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) pilot analysis: Multitissue gene regulation in humans

Kristin G. Ardlie, +132 more
- 08 May 2015 - 
TL;DR: The landscape of gene expression across tissues is described, thousands of tissue-specific and shared regulatory expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) variants are cataloged, complex network relationships are described, and signals from genome-wide association studies explained by eQTLs are identified.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Map of Recent Positive Selection in the Human Genome

TL;DR: A set of SNPs is developed that can be used to tag the strongest ∼250 signals of recent selection in each population, and it is found that by some measures the authors' strongest signals of selection are from the Yoruba population.
Journal ArticleDOI

The GTEx Consortium atlas of genetic regulatory effects across human tissues

François Aguet, +167 more
- 01 Jan 2020 - 
Journal ArticleDOI

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

Alvaro N. Barbeira, +263 more
TL;DR: A mathematical expression is derived to compute PrediXcan results using summary data, and the effects of gene expression variation on human phenotypes in 44 GTEx tissues and >100 phenotypes are investigated.
