In the literature

LD lookup variants were chosen using the following criteria: (1) they were less than 1,500 kb away from the lead variant; (2) they had a P < 0.01; (3) and their LD squared Pearson’s correlation with the lead variant was higher than a dynamic LD threshold based on the P value of the lead variant so that the expected P value of the linked variant would be nominally significant ( r 2 = 5/inverse chi-squared survival function ( P value)).
For protein-coding genes, a 53% (1.64 SD) elevation in the mutation rate will thus never be nominally significant. 3.2 Length scale of regions with biased mutation rates The neutral background mutation rate is predicted by the statistical mutation-rate model relying on a number of genomic features known to correlate with the mutation rate in cancer ( Bertl et al. , 2018 ).
