Sixteen new lung function signals identified through 1000 Genomes Project reference panel imputation

Lung function measures are used in the diagnosis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. In 38,199 European ancestry individuals, we studied genome-wide association of forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1), forced vital capacity (FVC) and FEV1/FVC with 1000 Genomes Project (Phase 1) imputed genotypes and followed up top associations in 54,550 Europeans. We identify 14 novel loci (P<5x10-8) in or near ENSA, RNU5F-1, KCNS3, AK097794, ASTN2, LHX3, CCDC91, TBX3, TRIP11, RIN3, TEKT5, LTBP4, MN1, AP1S2, and two novel signals at known loci NPNT and GPR126, providing a basis for new understanding of the genetic determinants of these traits and pulmonary diseases in which they are altered
