  • SKAT error when including covariates

    I am using the SKAT program in R to try and analyse a small subset of data for just one gene looking at certain rare variants.
    I run into an error when I try and add covariates into the model.
    I would really appreciate any help at all, or a hint of what could be wrong!

    I am doing the following;

    Use Generate_SSD_SetID to create SSD and Info files from the plink files.

    Use Read_Plink_FAM_Cov to read in the Fam and cov files, I have three covariates, and the file looks like this;

    > FAM_Cov[1:5,]
    FID IID PID MID Sex Phenotype COV1 COV2 COV3
    1 GKAD0335 GKAD0335 0 0 1 1 1 0 89
    2 GKAD0874 GKAD0874 0 0 2 1 2 1 80
    3 GKAD0364 GKAD0364 0 0 1 1 1 1 86
    4 GKAD0412 GKAD0412 0 0 2 1 2 0 NA
    5 GKAD0393 GKAD0393 0 0 2 1 2 0 85

    then I do;

    > y<-FAM_Cov$Phenotype
    > X1 = FAM_Cov$COV1
    > X2 = FAM_Cov$COV2
    > X3 = FAM_Cov$COV3

    > SSD.INFO<-Open_SSD(File.SSD, File.Info)
    > obj<-SKAT_Null_Model(y ~ X1 + X2 + X3, out_type="D")
    > SKAT.SSD.All(SSD.INFO, obj)

    $results
    SetID P.value N.Marker.All N.Marker.Test
    1 gene NA NA NA

    $P.value.Resampling
    NULL

    attr(,"class")
    [1] "SKAT_SSD_ALL"
    Warning message:
    Error to run SKAT for gene: Error in as.matrix(Z[id_include, ]) : subscript out of bounds

    Essential Discoveries and Tools in Epitranscriptomics
    by seqadmin




    The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist...

    Current Approaches to Protein Sequencing
    by seqadmin


    Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...
