Abstract excerpt
SNV rs12477314 (C>T; 1000G MAF = 0.14), which maps to an intergenic region on 2q37.3, is a genome-wide significant association signal for pulmonary function in genome-wide association study meta-analyses. Bioinformatic analysis revealed that the intergenic region in proximity to the sentinel SNV is enriched for histone methylation markers suggestive of active enhancer regions modifiable by DNA methylation. The...
