Software and Algorithms Sentences Resources Here, since we have no access to the individual-level data, we used EUR samples from the 1000 Genomes Project (Phase 3) to estimate Σk, yielding the out-sample LD matrix. 1000 Genomes Projectsuggested: (1000 Genomes Project and AWS, RRID:SCR_008801)WGS data processing in the MVP was performed via the functional equivalence GATK variant calling pipeline96, which was developed by the Broad Institute and plugged into our data and task management system Trellis. WGSsuggested: NoneWe used BWA-MEM (v0.7.15) to align reads, Picard 2.15.0 to mark PCR duplicates, and GATK 4.1.0.0 for BQSR and … SciScore for 10.1101/2021.06.15.21258703: (What is this?)

BWA-MEMsuggested: (Sniffles, RRID:SCR_017619)Picardsuggested: (Picard, RRID:SCR_006525)GATKsuggested: (GATK, RRID:SCR_001876)We also used FASTQC (v0.11.4), SAMTools flagstat (v0.1.19), and RTG Tools vcfstats (v3.7.1) to assess the qualities of the FASTQ, BAM, and gVCF files, respectively. FASTQCsuggested: (FastQC, RRID:SCR_014583)SAMToolssuggested: (SAMTOOLS, RRID:SCR_002105)Genomic positions resided in low complexity regions or ENCODE blacklisted regions were first removed. ENCODEsuggested: (Encode, RRID:SCR_015482)Regeneron’s burden testing results were obtained from the Regeneron results browser (https://rgc-covid19.regeneron.com/results), where only semi-significant genes (P<1e-03, REGENIE103) were available. Regeneron results browsersuggested: NoneThe PULSE model: Feature engineering: Given the variant annotations from ANNOVAR, we calculated gene-level mutation profiles for each individual. ANNOVARsuggested: (ANNOVAR, RRID:SCR_012821)Network analysis: We first downloaded the human PPIs from STRING v11, including 19,567 proteins and 11,759,455 protein interactions. STRINGsuggested: (STRING, RRID:SCR_005223)Results from OddPub: We did not detect open data. We also did not detect open code. Researchers are encouraged to share open data when possible (see Nature blog).
