Art: Rae Senarighi, Richard Sandstrom
Diverse epigenomic assays:
1. Histone modifications
• H3K4me3, H3K4me1
• H3K36me3
• H3K27me3, H3K9me3
• H3K27ac, H3K9ac
2. Open chromatin:
• DNase
3. DNA methylation:
• WGBS, RRBS, MRE/MeDIP
4. Gene expression
• RNA-seq, Exon Arrays
Diverse tissues and cells:
1. Adult tissues and cells (brain, muscle, heart, digestive, skin, adipose, lung, blood…)
2. Fetal tissues (brain, skeletal muscle, heart, digestive, lung, cord blood…)
3. ES cells, iPS, differentiated cells (meso/endo/ectoderm, neural, mesench, trophobl)
Diverse chromatin signatures encode epigenomic state

The challenge of interpreting disease-association studies
• Large associated blocks with many variants: Fine-mapping challenge
• No information on cell type/mechanism, most variants non-coding
 Epigenomic annotations help find relevant cell types / nucleotides
Revisiting diseaseassociated variants
xx
• Disease-associated SNPs enriched for enhancers in relevant cell types
• E.g. lupus SNP in GM enhancer disrupts Ets1 predicted activator
Mechanistic predictions for top disease-associated SNPs
Lupus erythromatosus in GM lymphoblastoid
Erythrocyte phenotypes in K562 leukemia cells
`
Disrupt activator Ets-1 motif
 Loss of GM-specific activation
 Loss of enhancer function
 Loss of HLA-DRB1 expression
Creation of repressor Gfi1 motif
 Gain K562-specific repression
 Loss of enhancer function
 Loss of CCDC162 expression

down the rank list, even after LD pruning!

Abhishek Sarkar
• Enhancer enrichment strong for top ~30k SNPs
• Heritability estimates also increase until ~30k SNPs
Brain methylation changes in AD patients

Promoters
• 10,000s of methylation differences in AD vs. control
• Harbor 1000s of genetic variants associated with AD
• Localized in brain-specific enhancers and pathways
T1D/RA-enriched enhancers spread across genome
Abhishek Sarkar
• High concentration of loci in MHC, high overlap
• Yet: many distinct regions, 1000s of distinct loci

Gerald Quon
• SP3 no direct assoc but clusters w/ many MS hits
• SP3 is indeed down-regulated in MS patients
# non-genetic hits  missing heritability
• Missing heritability partly due to weak variants
• Regulators lacking association harbor rare variants
e.g. Coronary artery disease: GATA6 (congential heart disease), HNF1A
(cardiovascular), PPARG (lipid metabolism, partial lipodystrophy)
