Abstract excerpt
Neuropsychiatric and neurodegenerative diseases have a significant genetic component. Risk variants often affect the noncoding genome, altering cis-regulatory elements (CREs) and chromatin structure, ultimately impacting gene expression. Chromatin accessibility profiling methods, especially assay for transposase-accessible chromatin with high-throughput sequencing (ATAC-seq), have been used to pinpoint...
