Abstract excerpt
Understanding the genetic basis of gene expression is crucial for elucidating the mechanisms underlying complex traits, especially for protein-coding genes (PCGs) whose expression levels directly affect protein abundance and functionality. Recent studies have improved our understanding of local (cis-) and distal (trans-) regulatory mechanisms that control gene expression levels. However, a comprehensive...
