Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease, for which genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified many genetic variants as risk markers. However, the details of underlying molecular mechanisms, especially which variants are functional, are poorly understood. METHODS: We utilized a computational approach to survey psoriasis-associated functional variants that might affect protein...
