Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Genetic variation drives phenotypic diversity and disease susceptibility. Trans-acting genetic variation coordinates genome-wide chromatin changes, yet the molecular mechanisms underlying this distal regulation remain unclear. Here, we use the power of mouse genetics to investigate how genetic variation at trans-acting loci regulates three-dimensional (3D) chromatin interactions. RESULTS: Using HiChIP...
