### An R Package for Creating a Database of Genomic Association of Complex Traits

The R package ***gact*** is designed for establishing and populating a
comprehensive database focused on genomic associations with complex
traits. The package serves two primary functions: infrastructure
creation and data acquisition. It facilitates the assembly of a
structured repository that includes single marker associations,
carefully curated to maintain high data quality. Beyond individual
genetic markers, the package integrates a broad spectrum of genomic
entities, encompassing genes, proteins, and an array of biological
complexes (chemical and protein), as well as various biological
pathways. It is designed to aid in the biological interpretation of
genomic associations, shedding light on their complex relationships in
the context of genomic associations of complex traits.

**gact** provides an infrastructure for efficient processing of
large-scale genomic association data, including core functions for:

- Establishing and populating a database for genomic association.
- Downloading and processing a range of biological databases.
- Downloading and processing summary statistics from genome-wide
  association studies (GWAS).
- Conducting bioinformatic procedures to link genetic markers with
  genes, proteins, metabolites, and biological pathways.
- Finemapping of genomic regions using Bayesian Linear Regression
  models.
- Performing advanced gene set enrichment analysis utilizing a variety
  of tools and methodologies.

**gact** constructs gene and genetic marker sets from a range of
biological databases including:

- `"Ensembl"`: Gene, protein, transcript sets derived from the
  [Ensembl](https://www.ensembl.org/index.html) database.
- `"Regulation"`: Regulatory genomic feature sets derived from the
  [Ensembl
  Regulation](https://www.ensembl.org/info/genome/funcgen/index.html)
  database.
- `"GO"`: Gene Ontology sets from the [GO](https://geneontology.org)
  database.
- `"Pathways"`: Pathway sets from the [Reactome](https://reactome.org)
  and [KEGG](https://www.genome.jp/kegg/pathway.html) databases.
- `"ProteinComplexes"`: Protein complex sets derived from the
  [STRING](https://string-db.org) database.
- `"ChemicalComplexes"`: Chemical complex sets derived from the
  [STITCH](http://stitch.embl.de/) database.
- `"DrugGenes"`: Drug-gene interaction sets the
  [DrugBank](https://go.drugbank.com) database.
- `"DrugATCGenes"`: Drug ATC gene sets based on the
  [ATC](https://www.whocc.no/atc_ddd_index/) and
  [DrugBank](https://go.drugbank.com) databases.
- `"DrugComplexes"`: Drug gene complex sets combining information from
  [STRING](https://string-db.org) and
  [DrugBank](https://go.drugbank.com).
- `"DiseaseGenes"`: Disease-gene sets based on experiments, textmining
  and knowledge base derived from the
  [DISEASE](https://diseases.jensenlab.org/Search) database.
- `"GTEx"`: GTEx project eQTL sets derived from the
  [GTEx](https://www.gtexportal.org/home/downloads/adult-gtex/overview)
  database.
- `"GWAScatalog"`: GWAS catalog sets derived from the
  [GWAScatalog](https://www.ebi.ac.uk/gwas/) database.
- `"VEP"`: Variant Effect Predictor sets derived from the [Ensembl
  Variant Effect
  Predictor](https://grch37.ensembl.org/info/docs/tools/vep) database.
