A method to estimate the contribution of rare coding variants to complex trait heritability
Abstract It has been postulated that rare coding variants (RVs; MAF < 0.01) contribute to the “missing” heritability of complex traits. We developed a framework, the Rare variant heritability (RARity) estimator, to assess RV heritability (h 2 RV) without assuming a particular genetic architecture...
