finemap.signals: Finemap multiple signals in a single dataset

Description

This is an analogue to finemap.abf, adapted to find multiple signals where they exist, via conditioning or masking - ie a stepwise procedure

Usage

finemap.signals(
  D,
  LD = D$LD,
  method = c("single", "mask", "cond"),
  r2thr = 0.01,
  sigsnps = NULL,
  pthr = 1e-06,
  maxhits = 3,
  return.pp = FALSE
)

Value

list of successively significant fine mapped SNPs, named by the SNPs

Arguments

D

list of summary stats for a single disease, see check_dataset

LD

matrix of signed r values (not rsq!) giving correlation between SNPs

method

if method="cond", then use conditioning to coloc multiple signals. The default is mask - this is less powerful, but safer because it does not assume that the LD matrix is properly allelically aligned to estimated effect

r2thr

if mask==TRUE, all snps will be masked with r2 > r2thr with any sigsnps. Otherwise ignored

sigsnps

SNPs already deemed significant, to condition on or mask, expressed as a numeric vector, whose names are the snp names

pthr

when p > pthr, stop successive searching

maxhits

maximum depth of conditioning. procedure will stop if p > pthr OR abs(z)<zthr OR maxhits hits have been found.

return.pp

if FALSE (default), just return the hits. Otherwise return vectors of PP

mask

use masking if TRUE, otherwise conditioning. defaults to TRUE
