Abstract excerpt
The genetic basis of disease has largely focused on coding regions. However, it has become clear that a large proportion of the noncoding genome is functional and harbors genetic variants that contribute to disease etiology. Here, we review recent examples of inherited noncoding alterations that are responsible for Mendelian disorders or act to influence complex traits. We explore both rare and common genetic...
