Regulatory genome variants in human susceptibility to infection.

Abstract excerpt

Genome studies have accelerated the discovery of common and rare genetic variants associated with susceptibility to infection and with disease severity. Genome-wide association studies identified many common genetic variants associated with modest risk for infection. Over 80% of these common variants map to the non-coding genome and are thought to modulate the regulatory networks. Exome sequencing has rapidly...
