A systematic survey of human tissue-specific gene expression and splicing reveals new opportunities for therapeutic target identification and evaluation

2018-04-30

Abstract excerpt

Differences in the expression of genes and their splice isoforms across human tissues are fundamental factors to consider for therapeutic target evaluation. To this end, we conducted a transcriptome-wide survey of tissue-specific gene expression and splicing events in the unprecedented collection of 8527 high-quality RNA-seq samples from the GTEx project, covering 36 human peripheral tissues and 13 brain subregion...
