Study Overview

  • Study name : ROSMAP DLPFC eQTL
  • Study Description : Religious Orders Study (ROS) or the Rush Memory and Aging Project (MAP) eQTL analysis summary statistics using the FGC xQTL pipeline.

Samples’ phenotype information (sex, age, race etc.) can be found in ROSMAP metadata, see “Other information” section in this document

QC and Normalization Details for Phenotype Data

Brain multi-region RNA-seq data was processed with the xQTL-pipeline, for analysis details please check records here: eQTL

Genotype parameters

  • Kinship coefficient for related individuals: 0.0625
  • Minor allele count cutoff for single variant analysis: 5
  • Variant level missingness threshold: 0.1
  • Sample level missingness threshold: 0.1
  • HWE filter: 1e-06

Covariate parameters

PCA analysis:

  • MAF for PCA: 0.01
  • LD pruning via PLINK for PCA analysis: window 50, shift 10, r2 0.1
  • Tolerance of missingness in covariates: 0.3
  • number of pc that captured more than 70% PVE were kept

PEER analysis (Default values from PEER software):

  • The number of max iteration: 1000
  • Prior parameter Alpha_a: 0.001
  • Prior parameter Alpha_b: 0.1
  • Prior parameter Eps_a: 0.1
  • Prior parameter Eps_b: 10.0
  • Tolerance parameter tol: 0.001
  • Tolerance parameter var_tol: 0.00001
  • minimum variance explained criteria to drop factors while training r2_tol: False
  • Convergence mode: “fast”

Final covariates: Sex, Age at death, PMI, PCs(13), PEER factors(60)

TensorQTL association scan parameters

  • cis window for the up and downstream radius to analyze around the region of interest, in units of bp: 1000000
  • Minor allele count cutoff: 5
  • Minor allele frequency cutoff: 5/(2N), where N is the number of samples in the analysis. The pipeline computes N from the covariate file, so the cutoff differs between datasets.

See notebooks in:

The notebooks in this folder contain the commands, data wrangling codes for analysis of the eQTL and sQTL data in ROSMAP (data wrangling exist because not all data are processed using the xqtl-pipeline from the beginning and need to be reformatted to fit one intermediate step of the pipeline), log files and some of the results visualizations produced by the pipeline when processing and analyzing the RNA-seq expression in the Dorsolateral Prefrontal Cortex region of the ROSMAP brain data (DLPFC-ROSMAP).

Association data preprocessing

phenotype preprocessing and genotype preprocessing can be run in parallel but covariate preprocessing needs to be done last since it requires both phenotype data and PCs from PCA in genotype preprocessing.

  • genotype_qc.ipynb shows the commands used for genotype processing and preparation steps, including why we decided not to remove any outliers.
    • Mostly contains the commands used to run the pipeline, but includes some pre-pipeline data wrangling.
    • This includes QC, PCA, and GRM steps
  • phenotype_preprocessing_eqtl.ipynb shows the commands used for the phenotype data processing and preparation steps.
    • As above, it mostly contains the commands used to run the pipeline, but includes some pre-pipeline data wrangling.
    • This includes quantification steps, QC, annotation, and residual expression steps
  • covariate_preprocessing_eQTL.ipynb shows the commands used for the covariate data processing and preparation steps.
    • This includes PEER factor analysis steps and merging the PEER factors to covariates in raw data and PCA.
  • rnaSeq_PEER.diag.pdf PEER factor analysis result

Association scan using TensorQTL and summary statistics standardization

  • association_scan_eQTL.ipynb provides information about the TensorQTL cis association scan.(might be confused when there are multiple versions)
  • TensorQTL.ipynb provides the pipeline to generate TensorQTL cis association results for all QTLs.
  • ROSMAP_CUIMC1_bulk_eQTLprovides information about the input files for AC/DLPFC/PCC TensorQTL cis association in the base_params variable in [generate_command_1].
