Abstract excerpt
Understanding the functions of disease-associated noncoding variants is essential for understanding the molecular mechanisms driving diseases with a genetic cause and for identifying therapeutic targets. Combined computational and experimental analyses have demonstrated that IRF5 is hyperactivated by a pathogenic allele of TNPO3 through long-distance chromatin looping. This finding identifies a molecular...
