Detecting functional rare variants by collapsing and incorporating functional annotation in Genetic Analysis Workshop 17 mini-exome data
Association studies using tag SNPs have been successful in detecting disease-associated common variants. However, common variants, with rare exceptions, explain only at most 5–10% of the heritability resulting from genetic factors, which leads to the common disease/rare variants assumption. Indeed,...
