This paper introduces FLEX, a method for estimating gene-level heritability from whole-exome sequencing data, showing rare coding variants contribute significantly to complex trait heritability.

The paper investigates why carriers of pathogenic variants in monogenic metabolic conditions show variable disease severity, finding support for variant effect sizes, polygenic backgrounds, and epistasis.

The paper estimates SNP-based heritability for four smoking behaviors using partitioned h2SNP in the UK Biobank, finding modest heritability and significant contributions from low-frequency variants.
