Non-coding autoimmune risk variant accelerates T peripheral helper cell development via ICOS
2022-12-16
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Fine-mapping and functional studies implicate rs117701653, a common non-coding variant in the CD28/CTLA4/ICOS locus, as a contributor to risk for rheumatoid arthritis and type 1 diabetes. Using DNA pulldown, mass spectrometry, genome editing and eQTL analysis, we establish that the disease-associated allele reduces affinity for the inhibitory chromosomal regulator SMCHD1 to drive expression of...
