We assessed the genomic colocalization between 2,747 GWS SNPs identified in non-EUR (Supplementary Tables 5–8) and 9,863 GWS SNPs identified in EUR (Supplementary Table 4) by quantifying the proportion of EUR GWS SNPs identified within 100 kb of any non-EUR GWS SNP. We tested the statistical significance of this proportion by comparing it with the proportion of EUR GWS SNPs identified within 100 kb of random HM3 SNPs matched with non-EUR GWS SNPs on 24 binary functional annotations39.
