Abstract | Genomic imprinting is an important epigenetic phenomenon in studying complex traits and has generally been examined by detecting parent-of-origin effects of alleles. The parental-asymmetry test based on nuclear families with both parents and its extensions to deal with missing parental genotypes are simple and powerful for such a task. However, these methods only use case (affected) children in nuclear families and thus do not make full use of information on control (unaffected) children, if available, in these families. In this talk, we propose a novel parent-of-origin effects test C-PATu by using both the control and case children in nuclear families with one or both parents. C-PATu is essentially constructed under a weighted framework, in which the test based on all the unaffected children … |
