Abstract excerpt
A considerable proportion of heritable human phenotypic variation is thought to result from altered gene expression. Unfortunately, it is currently impossible to use bioinformatic analysis to discriminate between DNA sequence variants that are likely to influence gene expression and those that are not. In an attempt to define some of the characteristics of promoter polymorphisms with functional effects on gene...
