Osteoporosis: GWAS to Drug Target Druggability Analysis

Perform a comprehensive GWAS-to-drug-target druggability analysis for Osteoporosis. Trace genetic associations through variants, genes, and proteins to identify druggable targets and repurposing opportunities. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ SECTION 1: DISEASE IDENTIFIERS ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Find all database identifiers for Osteoporosis: MONDO, EFO, OMIM, Orphanet, MeSH ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ SECTION 2: GWAS LANDSCAPE ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Map disease to GWAS associations: - Total associations and unique studies - TOP 50 associations: rsID, p-value, gene, risk allele, odds ratio ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ SECTION 3: VARIANT DETAILS (dbSNP) ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ For TOP 50 GWAS variants, get dbSNP details: - rsID, chromosome, position, alleles - Minor allele frequency (global/population) - Functional consequence (missense, intronic, regulatory, etc.) Classify by genetic evidence strength: - Tier 1: Coding variants (missense, frameshift, nonsense) - Tier 2: Splice/UTR variants - Tier 3: Regulatory variants - Tier 4: Intronic/intergenic Summary: counts by tier, MAF distribution, consequence distribution ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ SECTION 4: MENDELIAN DISEASE OVERLAP ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Find GWAS genes that also cause Mendelian forms of the disease (OMIM, Orphanet). Genes with BOTH GWAS + Mendelian evidence = highest confidence targets. List: Gene, GWAS p-value, Mendelian disease, inheritance pattern ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ SECTION 5: GWAS GENES TO PROTEINS ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Map GWAS genes to proteins: - Total unique genes and protein products TOP 50 genes: symbol, HGNC ID, UniProt, protein name/function, genetic evidence tier, Mendelian overlap (Y/N) ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ SECTION 6: PROTEIN FAMILY CLASSIFICATION ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Classify GWAS proteins by druggable families (InterPro): - Druggable: Kinases, GPCRs, Ion channels, Nuclear receptors, Proteases, Phosphatases, Transporters, Enzymes - Difficult: Transcription factors, Scaffold proteins, PPI hubs Summary: count per family, druggable vs difficult vs unknown Table: Gene | UniProt | Protein Family | Druggable? | Notes ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ SECTION 7: EXPRESSION CONTEXT ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Check tissue and single-cell expression for GWAS genes. Identify disease-relevant tissues/cell types for Osteoporosis. Analysis: - Which tissues/cell types highly express GWAS genes? - Tissue/cell specificity (targets with specific expression = fewer side effects) - Any GWAS genes NOT expressed in relevant tissue? (lower confidence) Table TOP 30: Gene | Tissues | Cell Types | Specificity ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ SECTION 8: PROTEIN INTERACTIONS ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Map protein interactions among GWAS genes (STRING, BioGRID, IntAct). Analysis: - Do GWAS genes interact with each other? (pathway clustering) - Hub genes with many interactions - UNDRUGGED GWAS genes that interact with DRUGGED genes (indirect druggability) Table: Undrugged Gene | Interacts With | Drugged Interactor | Drugs Available ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ SECTION 9: STRUCTURAL DATA ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Check structure availability for GWAS proteins (PDB, AlphaFold). Structure availability affects druggability. Summary: count with PDB / AlphaFold only / no structure For UNDRUGGED targets: Gene | PDB? | AlphaFold? | Quality ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ SECTION 10: DRUG TARGET ANALYSIS ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Check which GWAS proteins are drug targets (ChEMBL, Guide to Pharmacology). Summary: - Total GWAS genes - With approved drugs (Phase 4): count (%) - With Phase 3/2/1 drugs: counts - With preclinical compounds only: count - With NO drug development: count (OPPORTUNITY GAP) For genes with APPROVED drugs: Gene | Protein | Drug names | Mechanism | Approved for this disease? (Y/N) ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ SECTION 11: BIOACTIVITY & ENZYME DATA ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Check bioactivity data for GWAS proteins (PubChem, BRENDA for enzymes). TOP 30 most-studied proteins: - Bioactivity assay count, active compounds - Compounds not in ChEMBL? (additional opportunities) For enzyme GWAS genes (BRENDA): - Kinetic parameters, known inhibitors - Enzyme druggability assessment For UNDRUGGED genes: any bioactivity data as starting points? ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ SECTION 12: PHARMACOGENOMICS ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Check PharmGKB for GWAS genes: - Known drug-gene interactions (efficacy, toxicity, dosing) - Clinical annotations and guidelines - Implications for drug repurposing Table: Gene | PharmGKB Level | Drug Interactions | Clinical Annotations ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ SECTION 13: CLINICAL TRIALS ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Get clinical trials for Osteoporosis: - Total trials, breakdown by phase TOP 30 drugs in trials: Drug | Phase | Mechanism | Target gene | Targets GWAS gene? (Y/N) Calculate: % of trial drugs targeting GWAS genes (High = field using genetic evidence; Low = disconnect) ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ SECTION 14: PATHWAY ANALYSIS ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Map GWAS genes to pathways (Reactome). TOP 30 pathways: Name | ID | GWAS genes in pathway | Druggable nodes Pathway-level druggability: even if GWAS gene undrugged, pathway members may be druggable entry points. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ SECTION 15: DRUG REPURPOSING OPPORTUNITIES ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Identify drugs approved for OTHER diseases that target GWAS genes.
