Title
Pathway analysis by randomization incorporating structure - PARIS: an update.
Abstract
Motivation: We present an update to the pathway enrichment analysis tool 'Pathway Analysis by Randomization Incorporating Structure (PARIS)' that determines aggregated association signals generated from genome-wide association study results. Pathway-based analyses highlight biological pathways associated with phenotypes. PARIS uses a unique permutation strategy to evaluate the genomic structure of interrogated pathways, through permutation testing of genomic features, thus eliminating many of the over-testing concerns arising with other pathway analysis approaches. Results: We have updated PARIS to incorporate expanded pathway definitions through the incorporation of new expert knowledge from multiple database sources, through customized user provided pathways, and other improvements in user flexibility and functionality. Availability and implementation: PARIS is freely available to all users at https://ritchielab.psu.edu/software/paris-download.
