Using hESCs to Probe the Interaction of the Diabetes-Associated Genes CDKAL1 and MT1E

Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have identified many disease-associated variant alleles, but understanding whether and how different genes/loci interact requires a platform for probing how the variant alleles act mechanistically. Isogenic mutant human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) provide an...
