GWASLab

badge Downloads badge_pip Hits badge_commit_m

  • A handy Python toolkit for handling GWAS summary statistics (sumstats).
  • Each process is modularized and can be customized to your needs.
  • Sumstats-specific manipulations are designed as methods of a Python object, gwaslab.Sumstats.

Please check GWASLab documentation at https://cloufield.github.io/gwaslab/

Note: GWASLab is being updated very frequently for now. I will release the first stable version soon! Please stay tuned.

Warning: Known issues of GWASLab are summarized in https://cloufield.github.io/gwaslab/KnownIssues/ .

Install

install via pip

pip install gwaslab==3.4.43
import gwaslab as gl
# load plink2 output
mysumstats = gl.Sumstats("t2d_bbj.txt.gz", fmt="plink2")

# load sumstats with auto mode (auto-detecting common headers) 
# assuming ALT/A1 is EA, and frq is EAF
mysumstats = gl.Sumstats("t2d_bbj.txt.gz", fmt="auto")

# or you can specify the columns:
mysumstats = gl.Sumstats("t2d_bbj.txt.gz",
             snpid="SNP",
             chrom="CHR",
             pos="POS",
             ea="ALT",
             nea="REF",
             neaf="Frq",
             beta="BETA",
             se="SE",
             p="P",
             direction="Dir",
             n="N",
             build="19")

# manhattan and qq plot
mysumstats.plot_mqq()
...

install in conda environment

Create a Python 3.9 environment and install gwaslab using pip:

conda env create -n gwaslab_test -c conda-forge python=3.9
conda activate gwaslab
pip install gwaslab==3.4.43

or create a new environment using yml file environment_3.4.40.yml

conda env create -n gwaslab -f environment_3.4.40.yml

install using docker

A docker file is available here for building local images.

Functions

Loading and Formatting

  • Loading sumstats by simply specifying the software name or format name, or specifying each column name.
  • Converting GWAS sumstats to specific formats:
    • LDSC / MAGMA / METAL / PLINK / SAIGE / REGENIE / MR-MEGA / GWAS-SSF / FUMA / GWAS-VCF / BED...
    • check available formats
  • Optional filtering of variants in commonly used genomic regions: Hapmap3 SNPs / High-LD regions / MHC region

Standardization & Normalization

  • Variant ID standardization
  • CHR and POS notation standardization
  • Variant POS and allele normalization
  • Genome build : Inference and Liftover

Quality control, Value conversion & Filtering

  • Statistics sanity check
  • Extreme value removal
  • Equivalent statistics conversion
    • BETA/SE , OR/OR_95L/OR_95U
    • P, Z, CHISQ, MLOG10P
  • Customizable value filtering

Harmonization

  • rsID assignment based on CHR, POS, and REF/ALT
  • CHR POS assignment based on rsID using a reference text file
  • Palindromic SNPs and indels strand inference using a reference VCF
  • Check allele frequency discrepancy using a reference VCF
  • Reference allele alignment using a reference genome sequence FASTA file

Visualization

  • Mqq plot: Manhattan plot, QQ plot or MQQ plot (with a bunch of customizable features including auto-annotate nearest gene names)
  • Miami plot: mirrored Manhattan plot
  • Brisbane plot: GWAS hits density plot
  • Regional plot: GWAS regional plot
  • Genetic correlation heatmap: ldsc-rg genetic correlation matrix
  • Scatter plot: variant effect size comparison
  • Scatter plot: allele frequency comparison
  • Scatter plot: trumpet plot (plot of MAF and effect size with power lines)

Other Utilities

  • Read ldsc h2 or rg outputs directly as DataFrames (auto-parsing).
  • Extract lead variants given a sliding window size.
  • Extract novel loci given a list of known lead variants / or known loci obtained from GWAS Catalog.
  • Logging: keep a complete record of manipulations applied to the sumstats.
  • Sumstats summary: give you a quick overview of the sumstats.
