ENIGMA cortical-structure variant MPRA in phNPCs, vehicle condition
Massively parallel assessment of gene regulatory activity at human cortical structure associated variantsBoth alleles of 9,052 cortical-structure-associated variants from 198 ENIGMA GWAS loci were tested as 150-bp episomal reporter elements in primary human neural progenitor cells under baseline vehicle treatment. The table combines allele-level regulatory activity, vehicle allelic effects, and the published stimulation-versus-vehicle comparisons where available.

Perturbation & assay details
DMSO vehicle for 48 h after 24 h post-transfection
Both alleles of each selected SNP-centered 150-bp human reference sequence were synthesized and cloned upstream of a minimal promoter driving luciferase followed by a random 20-bp barcode. The pooled plasmid library was transfected into 16 biological replicates of phNPCs; after 24 h, cells received DMSO vehicle and were harvested 48 h later for barcode DNA-seq and RNA-seq. Activity and allelic effects were analyzed with MPRAnalyze v1.9.1; CHIR-treated samples were assayed in parallel for the condition-dependent columns.

Quality control
The authors trimmed adapters with cutadapt v4.1, retained perfectly matched 20-bp barcodes, filtered barcode observations with DNA or RNA counts below 5, required at least 5 unique barcodes per element, removed barcode-level RNA/DNA outliers with boxplot.stats(), removed low-correlation biological replicates (correlations 0.3–0.7), and retained elements represented in at least 10 replicates. The supplementary vehicle activity sheet is post-QC and contains 17,837 rows, of which 988 are called active at FDR < 0.1 and 16,849 inactive. The package additionally required non-empty identifiers, finite activity statistics, and active/inactive status; all 17,837 rows passed. For the stimulation-versus-vehicle comparative analysis, the authors excluded one replicate with a DNA library-size correction factor below 0.10. A source p-value of 0 is retained as the authors’ underflow indicator (<2.225074 × 10^-308).
Curation notes
This is the ENIGMA vehicle sheet (Supplementary Table 3a-style activity results) and uses the source legend's hg19 coordinates. The activity rows include inactive elements so researchers can compare active calls against the tested background; inactive is not a QC failure. The condition-dependent columns are repeated from the authors' separate interaction sheets and are blank when a variant was not included in that test. The biological source is primary human neural progenitor cells; CL:0011020 is the generic neural progenitor-cell ontology term because a more specific terminal cell type was not stated.
