OpenTargets_get_credible_set_detail tool specification

Tool Information:

  • Name: OpenTargets_get_credible_set_detail

  • Type: OpenTarget

  • Description: Get detailed information about a specific GWAS credible set (fine-mapped locus) from Open Targets. Returns the lead variant, associated study, fine-mapping method, statistical significance, locus-to-gene (L2G) predictions mapping the signal to likely causal genes, and colocalization evidence with QTLs.

Parameters:

  • studyLocusId (string) (required) Credible set identifier (studyLocusId), a 32-character hash (e.g., ‘b758d8fb10924f5338cbad8d27c7dee8’). Obtain from variant credible sets or study credible sets queries.

Example Usage:

query = {
    "name": "OpenTargets_get_credible_set_detail",
    "arguments": {
        "studyLocusId": "example_value"
    }
}
result = tu.run(query)

  • Type: OpenTarget

  • Description: Get detailed metadata for a GWAS study from Open Targets Platform, including trait information, sample sizes, publication details, disease mappings, cohorts, LD population structure, and availability of summary statistics. Use GCST accession IDs.

Parameters:

  • studyId (string) (required) GWAS study accession ID (e.g., ‘GCST000392’ for T1D Barrett et al., ‘GCST90029024’ for T2D Loh et al.)

Example Usage:

query = {
    "name": "OpenTargets_get_gwas_study",

        "studyId": "example_value"
    }
}
result = tu.run(query)

OpenTargets_get_study_credible_sets tool specification

Tool Information:

  • Name: OpenTargets_get_study_credible_sets

  • Type: OpenTarget

  • Description: Get all credible sets (fine-mapped GWAS loci) for a specific GWAS study from Open Targets. Returns the lead variants, fine-mapping details, p-values, effect sizes, and locus-to-gene (L2G) predictions for each locus in the study. Use this to explore all significant loci discovered in a GWAS.

Parameters:

  • studyIds (array) (required) GWAS study accession IDs (e.g., [‘GCST000392’])

  • size (integer) (optional) Number of credible sets to return (default 20)

  • index (integer) (optional) Page index for pagination (0-based, default 0)

Example Usage:

query = {
    "name": "OpenTargets_get_study_credible_sets",
    "arguments": {
        "studyIds": ["item1", "item2"]
    }
}
result = tu.run(query)

OpenTargets_get_variant_credible_sets (Type: OpenTarget)

Get GWAS credible sets (fine-mapped loci) associated with a genetic variant from Open Targets. Re…

OpenTargets_get_variant_credible_sets tool specification

Tool Information:

  • Name: OpenTargets_get_variant_credible_sets

  • Type: OpenTarget

  • Description: Get GWAS credible sets (fine-mapped loci) associated with a genetic variant from Open Targets. Returns studies where this variant appears in a fine-mapped credible set, with locus-to-gene (L2G) predictions, p-values, effect sizes, and the fine-mapping method used. Essential for understanding which GWAS signals a variant is part of and which genes it likely affects.

Parameters:

  • variantId (string) (required) Open Targets variant ID in format chr_position_ref_alt (e.g., ‘10_112998590_C_T’ for rs7903146)

  • size (integer) (optional) Number of credible sets to return (default 10)

Example Usage:

query = {
    "name": "OpenTargets_get_variant_credible_sets",
    "arguments": {
        "variantId": "example_value"
    }
}
result = tu.run(query)

OpenTargets_get_variant_info (Type: OpenTarget)

Get detailed information about a genetic variant from Open Targets Platform, including genomic co…

OpenTargets_get_variant_info tool specification

Tool Information:

  • Name: OpenTargets_get_variant_info

  • Type: OpenTarget

  • Description: Get detailed information about a genetic variant from Open Targets Platform, including genomic coordinates, rsIDs, allele frequencies across populations (gnomAD), functional consequence, transcript consequences, and HGVS notation. Useful for GWAS variant annotation and population genetics.

Parameters:

  • variantId (string) (required) Open Targets variant ID in format chr_position_ref_alt (e.g., ‘10_112998590_C_T’ for rs7903146, ‘19_44908684_T_C’ for rs429358). Use the search tool to find variant IDs from rsIDs.

Example Usage:

query = {
    "name": "OpenTargets_get_variant_info",
    "arguments": {
        "variantId": "example_value"
    }
}
result = tu.run(query)

    "arguments": {
        "diseaseIds": ["item1", "item2"]
    }
}
