eQTL Mapping Using Transcription Factor Affinity.

Abstract excerpt

In the last decades, thousands of common genetic variants have been associated with human diseases by genome-wide association studies (GWAS). However, the functional interpretation of GWAS hits is usually nontrivial, especially because most of them lay outside the coding genome. These noncoding variants presumably exert their effect by altering gene expression levels; therefore, expression quantitative trait loci...
