Abstract excerpt
Cis-acting allelic variation in gene regulation is a source of phenotypic variation. Consequently, recent studies have experimentally screened human genes in an attempt to initiate a catalog of genes possessing cis-acting variants. In this study, we use human EST data in dbEST as the source of allelic expression data, and the HapMap database to provide expected allele frequencies in human populations. We...
