Math expression for ancestry-specific tagging#


We first assume the phenotype has a single causal variant \(s\), and phenotype can be modeled as





\[\mathbf{y} = \mathbf{g}_{s,1} \boldsymbol{\beta}_{s, 1} + \mathbf{g}_{s,2} \boldsymbol{\beta}_{s,2} + \boldsymbol{\epsilon},\]




where \(\mathbf{g}_{s,\cdot}\) denote the genotype for each local ancestry, and \(\boldsymbol{\beta}_{s,\cdot}\) denote the allelic effect sizes for each local ancestry. The above equation can be rewritten for notation convenience, as





\[\mathbf{y} = \mathbf{G}_s \boldsymbol{\beta}_s + \boldsymbol{\epsilon},\]




where we denote





\[\begin{split}\mathbf{G}_s:= \left[
    \begin{smallmatrix}
        \vert     & \vert     \\
        \mathbf{g}_{s, 1} & \mathbf{g}_{s, 2} \\
        \vert     & \vert
    \end{smallmatrix}
    \right] \in \mathbb{R}^{N \times 2}\end{split}\]




and





\[\begin{split}\boldsymbol{\beta}_s =
\begin{bmatrix}
    \beta_{s, 1} \\
    \beta_{s, 2}
\end{bmatrix} \in \mathbb{R}^{2 \times 1}.\end{split}\]




Now we consider another tagging variant \(t\), we ask what would be the ancestry-specific marginal effects evaluated at the tagging variant \(t\) if the causal effects are the same across ancestries at variant \(s\)?


Based on linear regression, the estimated effects at \(t\) are





\[\widehat{\boldsymbol{\beta}_t} = (\mathbf{G}_t^\top \mathbf{G}_t)^{-1} \mathbf{G}_t^\top \mathbf{y}.\]




And the expectation of estimated effects are





\[\mathbb{E}[\widehat{\boldsymbol{\beta}_t}] = (\mathbf{G}_t^\top \mathbf{G}_t)^{-1} \mathbf{G}_t^\top \mathbf{G}_s \boldsymbol{\beta}_s\]




Because by assumption, \(\boldsymbol{\beta}_{s,1} = \boldsymbol{\beta}_{s,2} = \beta_s\), the above expectation can be simplified as





\[\mathbb{E}[\widehat{\boldsymbol{\beta}_t}] = (\mathbf{G}_t^\top \mathbf{G}_t)^{-1} \mathbf{G}_t^\top \mathbf{g}_s \beta_s\]




Therefore, \((\mathbf{G}_t^\top \mathbf{G}_t)^{-1} \mathbf{G}_t^\top \mathbf{g}_s\) is the key quantity here.






Implementation#


The following code admix_tagging calculate this quantity
