    Biological constraints on GWAS SNPs at suggestive significance thresholds reveal additional BMI loci

    Reza K Hammond, Matthew C Pahl ... Struan FA Grant
    By integrating GWAS data sets with ATAC-seq and promoter-focused Capture C data, one can uncover further loci beyond those that reach genome-wide significance (p<5x10-8).

    GWAS and ExWAS of blood mitochondrial DNA copy number identifies 71 loci and highlights a potential causal role in dementia

    Michael Chong, Pedrum Mohammadi-Shemirani ... Guillaume Paré
    An ethnically robust pipeline for inferring mitochondrial DNA copy number from genotyping arrays was developed and applied to the UKBiobank, elucidating several common and rare loci in genes involved in the synthesis, maintenance, and organization of mitochondrial DNA.

    Discovering non-additive heritability using additive GWAS summary statistics

    Samuel Pattillo Smith, Gregory Darnell ... Lorin Crawford
    Computational analysis reveals that additive summary statistics from genome-wide association studies can provide evidence of non-additive heritability in complex traits.

    Variable prediction accuracy of polygenic scores within an ancestry group

    Hakhamanesh Mostafavi, Arbel Harpak ... Molly Przeworski
    The prediction accuracies of polygenic scores in humans vary depending on the characteristics of the samples, as well as based on the study design, within a single ancestry group.

    TAF4, a subunit of transcription factor II D, directs promoter occupancy of nuclear receptor HNF4A during post-natal hepatocyte differentiation

    Daniil Alpern, Diana Langer ... Irwin Davidson
    Physical and functional interactions between HNF4A and TAF4 coordinate HNF4A genomic occupancy with pre-initiation complex formation to activate post-natal hepatocyte gene expression.

    Temporal transcriptional response to ethylene gas drives growth hormone cross-regulation in Arabidopsis

    Katherine Noelani Chang, Shan Zhong ... Joseph R Ecker
    The plant hormone ethylene regulates the expression of multiple genes in the model plant Arabidopsis, including those that respond to other hormones.

    Genetic association and causal inference converge on hyperglycaemia as a modifiable factor to improve lung function

    William R Reay, Sahar I El Shair ... Murray J Cairns
    Genetic data revealed existing drugs that could be repurposed to improve lung function, with evidence that compounds which control blood glucose could be particularly useful for respiratory impairment.

    A Mendelian randomization study of the role of lipoprotein subfractions in coronary artery disease

    Qingyuan Zhao, Jingshu Wang ... Daniel J Rader
    High-density lipoprotein (HDL) subfraction traits appear to have heterogeneous effects on coronary artery disease, giving support to the HDL function hypothesis.

    The return to water in ancestral Xenopus was accompanied by a novel mechanism for producing and shaping vocal signals

    Ursula Kwong-Brown, Martha L Tobias ... Darcy B Kelley
    When ancestral Xenopus returned to water ~170mya, they evolved a new method for producing courtship calls underwater without airflow, using vibrations that also preserve essential acoustic information on species identity.
