3 Chi-squared test to evaluate whether the odds ratio is different from 1. Corrected for multiple testing Source: wikipedia.org Need to watch out for potential bias such as population stratification

4 An example of GWAS report risk SNPs associated with systemic sclerosis Radstake et al., Nature Genetics 42, (2010)

8 Most risk SNPs are associated with low odds ratios

9 Most risk associated SNPs are outside of coding regions Total: 531 SNP-disease associations Hindorff et al., PNAS 2009 vol. 106 (23) pp

10 Hypothesis These non-coding risk associated SNPs may affect transcriptional regulatory processes

11 Transcription in Eukaryotes Takes place in the nucleus The lower strand is used as template RNA is made from 5 to 3 direction Multiple steps Class II genes are transcribed by RNAP2 and requires posttranscriptional processing

12 Transcription al initiation RNAPII loading to promoters requires general transcription factors (GTF)

14 cis-regulatory elements in the genome Insulator (Barrier) Promoter Enhancer Insulator (Enhancer blocking) Insulator (Barrier) Silencing element

15 Promoters Promoters are where transcription initiates Many promoter elements have been found TATA box was discovered in 1979 by comparison of a number of mrna start sites

16 How to Locate promoters in the human genome? Determine the full length transcripts and align to the genome Cap Analysis of Gene Expression

17 How to Locate promoters in the human genome? Determine the full length transcripts and align to the genome Locate promoters based on binding sites of the pre-initiation complex

18 Locate promoters in the human genome Locate promoters based on binding sites of the pre-initiation complex ChIP-chip analysis is a general approach for mapping transcription factor binding sites ChIP-seq provides a more cost-effective, genome-wide approach

19 cis-regulatory elements in the genome Insulator (Barrier) Promoter Enhancer Insulator (Enhancer blocking) Insulator (Barrier) Silencing element

26 Locating enhancers by mapping the p300 binding sites Visel et al., Nature 2009

27 Chromatin signature of promoters and enhancers Enhancers are marked by H3K4me1 but NOT H3K4me3 Promoters are marked by H3K4me3 and a depletion of H3K4me1 Heintzman et al., Nature Genetics, 2007

35 Hypothesis These non-coding risk associated SNPs may affect transcriptional regulatory processes

36 Risk associated SNPs are enriched at promoter regions

37

38 Disease associated SNPs are enriched at enhancers identified in specific cell types Ernst et al., Nature 2011

39 Summary Much of the non-coding sequences in the human genome are likely involved in transcriptional regulation Sequence variations within these sites could contribute to a variety of human diseases and phenotypic variations A major challenge is to link the sequence variations within the distal regulatory sequences to variations in expression of target genes
