The Genetic and Evolutionary Basis of Gene Expression Variation in East Africans

2022-02-16

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Mapping of quantitative trait loci (QTL) associated with molecular phenotypes is a powerful approach for identifying the genes and molecular mechanisms underlying human traits and diseases. How the genetic architecture of molecular traits varies across human populations, however, has been less explored. To better understand the genetics of gene regulation in East Africans, we perform expressio...
