Integrating genome-wide genetic variations and monocyte expression data reveals trans-regulated gene modules in humans.

Integrating genome-wide genetic variations and monocyte expression data reveals trans-regulated gene modules in humans.

One major expectation from the transcriptome in humans is to characterize the biological basis of associations identified by genome-wide association studies. So far, few cis expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs) have been reliably related to disease susceptibility. Trans-regulating mechanisms m...
