Os estudos populacionais de associação genótipo-fenótipo com base
em genes candidatos (Candidate gene Association Studies – CGAS)
conhecem um recente incremento resultante das abordagens baseadas
na sequenciação de nova geração. Este artigo resume os princípios
gerais do método CGAS que tem vindo a contribuir para a identificação
de variantes genéticas causais e para a nossa compreensão da arquitetura
genética das doenças humanas.
