Fig. 1: Study overview and selection of model traits.
From: Causal modelling of gene effects from regulators to programs to traits
a, Overview of the study. The square nodes represent genes, the coloured arrows between genes represent regulatory effects and the arrows from genes to traits represent associations. sgRNA, single guide RNA. b, Heritability enrichment of UKB traits to open chromatin regions in K562. Traits are ordered based on the P value of enrichment, which was estimated using the Jackknife test in S-LDSC. The dashed line indicates the threshold for Bonferroni significance. ATAC-seq, assay for transposase-accessible chromatin using sequencing; Cou, count; HLSR, high light scatter reticulocyte count; MCV, mean corpuscular volume; MRV, mean reticulocyte volume; MSCV, mean sphered corpuscular volume; Per, percentage; RBC, red blood cell; Ret, reticulocyte. c, Schematic of the human haematopoietic tree. Traits of interest are annotated near their relevant cell types. CLP, common lymphoid progenitor; CMP, common myeloid progenitor; GMP, granulocyte–monocyte progenitor; HSC, haematopoietic stem cell; MPP, multipotent progenitor. d, Comparison of heritability enrichment to UKB traits, between MEP and K562 open chromatin regions. P values were estimated using the Jackknife test in S-LDSC. The dashed line indicates the threshold for Bonferroni significance.
