DeCAF: a novel method to identify cell-type specific regulatory variants and their role in cancer risk

Here, we propose DeCAF (DEconvoluted cell type Allele specific Function), a new method to identify cell-fraction (cf) QTLs in tumors by leveraging both allelic and total expression information. Applying DeCAF to RNA-seq data from TCGA, we identify 3664 genes with cfQTLs (at 10% FDR) in 14 cell types...
