Abstract excerpt
Identification of new disease predisposition genes with chip-based technologies typically requires extensive financial and sample resources. We have recently shown that combining peripheral blood genome and transcriptome (BGT) information in highly selected materials can be a successful low-cost approach to unravelling dominant tumour susceptibility. In this study, we extended our investigations to recessively...
