An integrative functional genomics framework for effective identification of novel regulatory variants in genome–phenome studies

Abstract Background Genome–phenome studies have identified thousands of variants that are statistically associated with disease or traits; however, their functional roles are largely unclear. A comprehensive investigation of regulatory mechanisms and the gene regulatory networks between phenome-wide...
