  • Base file of PRSice software

    I am using PRSice software for Polygenic risk score calculation of complex diseases like Type 2 Diabetes, Coronary artery disease. Input files required for analysis are Base file (example: TOY_BASE_GWAS.assoc ) and target file (binary files from plink for your target data). I am able to create target files using plink plug in from genome studio .,but Don't know how to create gwas association file for my phenotype like Type 2 Diabetes

    You'll have to search the highest powered GWAS of T2D and download the association results. That's the base file on which you are going to build the predictive model.

      Thank you. I have downloaded association results from GWAS. The file has all required columns except effect size estimates, is there is any way to calculate it ? or is PRSice can run without effect size info in base file.
      {PRSice requires the base file to contain information of the effective allele (--A1), effect size estimates (--stat)}

        Does it not have a Beta? If you have a z-score and p-value you can compute a beta from them using inverse probability transformation. You can read up on this online and get a formula to do so.

          It does have a Beta/OR value for each SNP. Can this value be used instead of effect size?

            Beta is the effect size.

              Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
              by seqadmin


              Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
