- aThese two loci overlap.
- bCD = Crohn’s disease, T2D = Type 2 diabetes, CAD = Coronary artery disease, RA = Rheumatoid arthrtitis, T1D = Type 1 diabetes, BD = Bipolar disorder.
- cSRR ≥ 2 for the gene definition extended to reach a cumulative SRR ≥ 2 in each direction; and ± 50 Kb for gene definition extended to this length in each direction. Only changes in the number of genes, not in their identity, were observed between the three lists:- no differences with the genes highlighted by the WTCCC authors; + number of additional genes beyond the highlighted by the WTCCC authors. A full list of genes in each loci is available as Additional file 1: Table S1.
