Genome-wide comparison of allele-specific gene expression between African and European populations.

Abstract excerpt

Transcriptomic diversity across human populations reflects differential regulatory mechanisms. Allelic-imbalanced gene expression is a genetic regulatory mechanism that contributes to human phenotypic variation. To systematically investigate genome-wide allele-specific expression (ASE), we analyzed RNA-Seq data from European and African populations provided by the Geuvadis project. We identified 11 sites in 8...
