of a protective relationship with AN (Zfinemap = −4.63, PIP = 0.457, blood plasma protein). This discordant direction between mRNA and protein requires further investigation to refine its biological salience. The power of finemapping to identify causal genes increases when more GReX expression models are included, and thus, tissues were used for finemapping that were not subjected to the marginal TWAS, since removing these would decrease finemapping power. There are three genes (RP13- 28F13.5, NXPE1 and PRKAR2A) without TWAS blood and brain associations. One of these; PRKAR2A, exists in a credible set with four other genes (the same set as the finemapped TREX1), three of which are associated within brain regions.
