Abstract in brief

  • High-throughput proteomics platforms can link genomics to disease insights by analyzing thousands of proteins in plasma, as demonstrated by a study using Olink Explore 3072 data from over 50,000 UK Biobank participants.
  • The study found a modest correlation between the Olink platform and another platform, SomaScan, with notable differences in their assay performances, particularly in the detection of protein quantitative trait loci.
  • By stratifying participants based on ancestry, the research highlighted how diverse genetic backgrounds can uncover new associations and improve our understanding of the genetic basis of diseases, showcasing the complementary nature of these proteomics platforms.

Ok team #proteomics, I have been wondering this for a while. Is there a similar comparison with MS-based plasma proteomics (SEER?) out there? I am sure we can do better than this.
