Modified entropy-based procedure detects gene-gene-interactions in unconventional genetic models.

Jörg Malten | Inke R König
BMC medical genomics | 2020

Since it is assumed that genetic interactions play an important role in understanding the mechanisms of complex diseases, different statistical approaches have been suggested in recent years for this task. One interesting approach is the entropy-based IGENT method by Kwon et al. that promises an efficient detection of main effects and interaction effects simultaneously. However, a modification is required if the aim is to only detect interaction effects.

PLINK (tool)

RRID:SCR_001757

Open source whole genome association analysis toolset, designed to perform range of basic, large scale analyses in computationally efficient manner. Used for analysis of genotype/phenotype data. Through integration with gPLINK and Haploview, there is some support for subsequent visualization, annotation and storage of results. PLINK 1.9 is improved and second generation of the software.
