Whole-exome sequencing identifies common and rare variant metabolic QTLs in a Middle Eastern population

Whole-exome sequencing identifies common and rare variant metabolic QTLs in a Middle Eastern population

Blood metabolites are influenced by a combination of genetic and environmental factors. Here, Yousri and colleagues perform a whole-exome sequencing study in combination with a metabolomics analysis to identify metabolic quantitative trait loci in a Middle Eastern population.
