  1. AOR aorta, MAM mammary artery, LIV liver, SF subcutaneous fat, SKLM skeletal muscle. β values represent effect size. Positive β in BioMe and negative β in STARNET indicate LoF and low gene expression are associated with increased trait measurements. Negative β in BioMe and positive β in STARNET indicate LoF and low gene expression are associated with decreased trait measurements
