Abstract excerpt
Genome-wide association studies have identified genetic variation in genomic loci associated with susceptibility to Parkinson's disease (PD), the most common neurodegenerative movement disorder worldwide. We used allelic expression profiling of genes located within PD-associated loci to identify cis-regulatory variation affecting gene expression. DNA and RNA were extracted from post-mortem superior frontal gyrus...
