pQTL analysis
FINNGEN PROTEOMICS SUMMARY STATISTICS
General description
Compiled summary stats for proteomics QTL in imputed SNPs on FINNGEN. Two platforms are included, Olink (619 samples across 2925 proteins) and SomaScan (828 samples across 7596 proteins).
pQTL: The association results are from PLINK2 and in unrelated samples only (Relatedness cutoff based on genotype correlation r > 0.0625 for HapMap3 SNPs). Due to different sample size, the SNP set are not same between those two dataset.
Finemap: see Fine-mapping page, we input the summary data from pQTL
autoreporting: annotation of independent hits lead variants with e.g. gwas catalog, putative causal coding variants in credible set, gnomad allele frequencies
See the "Software" section for the software or pipeline we used.

Column descriptions for pQTL results
Field | Description |
---|---|
CHR | chromosome for variants |
POS | BP of the variants |
ID | SNP name (CHR_POS_REF_ALT) |
REF | reference allele provided in FINNGEN imputed data |
ALT | alternative allele, this is the effect allele (aka. A1, effect allele, A0 in some software) |
ALT_FREQ | allele frequency of the alternative allele |
BETA | effect size in additive model |
SE | standard error of the effect size |
T_STAT | t statistics from PLINK2 |
P | p-value in association test |
log10_P | -log10(P) keep extra precision when P < 10^-308 |
N | per-SNP sample size for the SNP |
Map the probes's name to gene symbol
File: all_gene_info.txt
Field | Description |
---|---|
Probe | probe name in the data/results gene |
geneName | mapping to the gene name (GeneCode V43) |
CHR | gene CHR |
start | gene start position |
end | gene end position |
strand | gene strand |
Olink: Other annotations from Olink as indicated by the column name.
Somascan: Other annotations from SomaScan as indicated by the column name. Note: NA means no matching, but keep the probe in the data to be complete.
