Genetic variants in mRNA untranslated regions.

Wiley interdisciplinary reviews. RNA - 1 Jul 2018

Steri Maristella, Idda M Laura, Whalen Michael B, Orrù Valeria

Abstract excerpt

Genome Wide Association Studies (GWAS) have mapped thousands of genetic variants associated with complex disease risk and regulating quantitative traits, thus exploiting an unprecedented high-resolution genetic characterization of the human genome. A small fraction (3.7%) of the identified associations is located in untranslated regions (UTRs), and the molecular mechanism has been elucidated for few of them....
