Experiment summary

Exome-wide single variant association analysis for atrial fibrillation was performed for UK Biobank participants of white European ancestry for whom high-quality genotyping and exome sequencing data were available. Rare coding variants (MAF ≤ 1%) that were predicted to cause loss of function were associated with atrial fibrillation in the exome sequencing cohort using a gene-based burden analysis.

Single-variant genetic associations are integrated into the T2DKP, and the gene-level results are available for download from the Downloads pages of the T2DKP, CVDKP, and CMDKP.
