Gene Expression Analysis Based on Imputed Genotypes

Gene expression in lymphoblastoid cell lines was characterized in a sample of 405 siblings using Affymetrix HG U133 Plus 2.0 chips. Among these individuals, 378 were also genotyped at >300,000 SNPs using the Illumina HumanHap300 arrays, with additional genotypes for SNPs in the Phase II HapMap filled in using imputation. This website provides a browseable summary of association analysis results (p-value < 0.001). The results summarize the additive association between each SNP and transcripts with estimated heritability > 30% in the sample.
   
You can browse the results by Gene/Probeset ID, by Chromosomal Position or by SNP name.
