Characterization of a COPD-Associated <i>NPNT</i> Functional Splicing Genetic Variant in Human Lung Tissue via Long-Read Sequencing
2020-10-23
Abstract excerpt
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a leading cause of death worldwide. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified over 80 loci that are associated with COPD and emphysema, however for most of these loci the causal variant and gene are unknown. Here, we utilize lung splice quantitative trait loci (sQTL) data from the Genotype-Tissue Expression project (GTEx) and short read sequencing data f...
