4. Figure 3
Plots of conditional analysis regions before and after conditioning on lead SNP
SNP=single nucleotide polymorphism. Plots of association signals around loci investigated in conditional analyses in subtypes in which they were discovered for the meta-analysed discovery samples. SNPs are coloured on the basis of their correlation (r2) with the labelled top SNP, which has the smallest p value in the region. The fine-scale recombination rates estimated from HapMap data are marked in red, with genes marked below by horizontal blue lines. Arrows on the horizontal blue lines show the direction of transcription, and rectangles are exons. (A,C,E) Regions from discovery meta-analyses. (B,D,F) Same regions as A,C,E after conditioning on the lead SNP from the region.
