Mining the Unknown: Assigning Function to Noncoding Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms.

Trends in genetics : TIG - 1 Jan 2017

Nishizaki Sierra S, Boyle Alan P

Abstract excerpt

One of the formative goals of genetics research is to understand how genetic variation leads to phenotypic differences and human disease. Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) bring us closer to this goal by linking variation with disease faster than ever before. Despite this, GWASs alone are unable to pinpoint disease-causing single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). Noncoding SNPs, which represent the majority...
