eqtlgen

is a Data Source.

The eQTLGen Consortium conducts large-scale meta-analyses of expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs) in blood samples to investigate the genetic architecture of gene expression and understand the genetic underpinnings of complex traits. Phase I analyzed 31,684 blood and PBMC samples from 37 cohorts, identifying thousands of cis-eQTLs, trans-eQTLs, and expression quantitative trait score (eQTS) associations. The consortium also includes a single-cell eQTLGen project. Phase II is expanding to genome-wide eQTL meta-analysis across even more blood-based cohorts. The resulting summary statistics provide a valuable resource for interpreting genome-wide association studies (GWAS), developing novel methods, and understanding molecular mechanisms of complex traits.
