Fig. 5. Enrichment of phenotype associations among sets of colocalized proteins.

Fig. 5

The ridgeline plot illustrates for each GWAS phenotype the proportion of colocalized proteins that were significantly associated with the same trait in AGES (linear regression, FDR < 0.05, n = 5457) (black lines) compared to 1000 randomly sampled sets of proteins of the same size (density curves), here showing only those with empirical P < 0.05. See full results in Supplementary Fig. 22. The number of colocalized proteins for each trait are provided on the left-hand side, along with the number of proteins remaining after the removal of proteins originating from loci with 5 or more colocalized proteins from the analysis, annotated as no trans hotspots (nth). Empirical P-values for significant enrichment of trait-associations are shown to the right.
