Mechanistic characterization of <i>RASGRP1</i> variants identifies an hnRNP K-regulated transcriptional enhancer contributing to SLE susceptibility
2019-03-06
Abstract excerpt
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease with a strong genetic component. We recently identified a novel SLE susceptibility locus near RASGRP1 , which governs the ERK/MAPK kinase cascade and B-/T-cell differentiation and development. However, precise causal RASGRP1 functional variant(s) and their mechanisms of action in SLE pathogenesis remain undefined. Our goal was to fine-map this locus, pr...
