Importance of SNP Dependency Correction and Association Integration for Gene Set Analysis in Genome-Wide Association Studies
A typical genome-wide association study (GWAS) analyzes millions of single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), several of which are in a region of the same gene. To conduct gene set analysis (GSA), information from SNPs needs to be unified at the gene level. A widely used practice is to use only the mo...
