摘要

研究基于卡塔尔生物银行1882名参与者,整合血液RNA测序、全基因组测序及45项临床性状,系统绘制短变异与结构变异对基因表达、异构体使用、剪接和等位基因特异性表达的调控图谱;鉴定约700万显著QTL、1379个新eGenes,精细定位29953个高置信因果位点,并揭示近亲婚配与纯合区域对调控变异负荷及隐性有害效应的影响,为中东人群基因组解读与基因组医学提供资源。

原文摘要

Abstract Ancestry-specific genetic mapping of transcriptome regulation is pivotal for understanding genome function, especially in underrepresented consanguineous populations. Here we characterized 1,882 Qatar Biobank participants, integrating blood RNA sequencing, whole-genome sequencing and phenotypic data across 45 clinically relevant traits. We cataloged ~7 million significant quantitative trait loci (QTLs), both short and structural variants, impacting gene expression, isoform usage, splicing and allele-specific expression, uncovering 1,379 novel eGenes. Fine-mapping resolved 29,953 high-confidence, independent causal loci including 24% previously unreported as well as those with effect alleles showing significant divergence across global populations, while 1,371 were absent from public databases. Leveraging elevated autozygosity, we found that causal variants are depleted from runs of homozygosity, consistent with purifying selection, while recent autozygosity increased the burden of homozygous regulatory variants. We identified QTLs with recessive deleterious effects on 10 Mendelian disease genes and homozygous QTLs causing extreme outlier expression in 66 genes including dosage-sensitive ones. Colocalization analysis revealed 58 causal variants acting on 20 clinically relevant phenotypes, implicating novel genes including ATP6V0B and RQCD1 in metabolic and blood disorders. These findings establish this QTL catalog as a valuable Middle Eastern resource for genome interpretation and genomic medicine.

推荐理由:这是一项高质量、ancestry特异的转录组QTL资源,对人群遗传学和基因组医学有较高价值;但研究材料为血液样本与临床性状,并非生殖/ART核心场景,对胚胎与生殖临床的直接推动有限,适合作为方法学与遗传背景参考浏览。
