We developed a new framework MetaboXcan that links genetically predicted metabolites, gene expression, and complex traits. The preprint is available on BioRxiv.

The metabolite prediction models utilized can be downloaded here and gene models from here.

The MetaboXcan software is available from GitHub, please report any issues on GitHub.
