Abstract excerpt
Interactions between proteins are highly conserved across species. As a result, the molecular basis of multiple diseases affecting humans can be studied in model organisms that offer many alternative experimental opportunities. One such organism-Caenorhabditis elegans-has been used to produce much molecular quantitative genetics and systems biology data over the past decade. We present WormQTL(HD) (Human...
