🧬 Smulders Longevity Extracted Dataset

This dataset was extracted from the publication:

Genetics of human longevity: From variants to genes to pathways
Journal of Internal Medicine, 2023 β€” Smulders et al.
DOI: 10.1111/joim.13690

It contains structured gene names and SNP identifiers mentioned throughout the paper.


πŸ“„ Dataset Description

Column Description
type Entry type: Gene or SNP
id The gene name or SNP ID

The gene names are uppercase identifiers, and SNPs follow the common rs format (e.g., rs429358).


πŸ”§ Usage Instructions

Load in Python

import pandas as pd

df = pd.read_parquet("smulders_longevity_extracted.parquet")
print(df.head())

πŸš€ Use Cases

  • Gene prioritization for longevity research
  • Mapping SNPs from literature to existing aging gene databases
  • Input for polygenic risk score (PRS) modeling
  • Enhancing datasets like LongevityMap with literature-derived signals
