STAAR (variant-Set Test for Association using Annotation infoRmation)

This is an R package for performing STAAR procedure in whole-genome sequencing studies.

Description

STAAR is an R package for performing variant-Set Test for Association using Annotation infoRmation (STAAR) procedure in whole-genome sequencing (WGS) studies. STAAR is a general framework that incorporates both qualitative functional categories and quantitative complementary functional annotations using an omnibus multi-dimensional weighting scheme. STAAR accounts for population structure and relatedness, and is scalable for analyzing large WGS studies of continuous and dichotomous traits.

Workflow Overview

STAAR_workflow

Prerequisites

R (recommended version >= 3.5.1)

For optimal computational performance, it is recommended to use an R version configured with the Intel Math Kernel Library (or other fast BLAS/LAPACK libraries). See the instructions on building R with Intel MKL.

Dependencies

STAAR links to R packages Rcpp and RcppArmadillo, and also imports R packages Rcpp, GMMAT, GENESIS, Matrix. These dependencies should be installed before installing STAAR.

Installation

library(devtools)
devtools::install_github("xihaoli/STAAR")

Docker Image

A docker image for STAAR, including R (version 3.6.1) built with Intel MKL and all STAAR-related packages (STAAR, STAARpipeline, STAARpipelineSummary) pre-installed, is located in the Docker Hub. The docker image can be pulled using

docker pull zilinli/staarpipeline:0.9.6

Usage

Please see the STAAR user manual for detailed usage of STAAR package. Please see the STAAR tutorial for an example of analyzing sequencing data using STAAR procedure. Please see the STAARpipeline tutorial for a detailed example of analyzing sequencing data using STAAR and STAARpipeline.

Data Availability

The whole-genome functional annotation data assembled from a variety of sources and the precomputed annotation principal components are available at the Functional Annotation of Variant - Online Resource (FAVOR) site and FAVOR Essential Database.

Version

The current version is 0.9.6.2 (January 13, 2023).
