Chromatin architecture reveals cell type-specific target genes for kidney disease risk variants
24 Feb 2021
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Cell type-specific transcriptional programming results from the combinatorial interplay between the repertoire of active regulatory elements. Disease-associated variants disrupt such programming, leading to altered expression of downstream regulated genes and the onset of pathological states. However, due to the non-linear regulatory properties of non-coding elements such as enhancers, which can...
