The Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA) Susceptibility Locus, IL2RA, Includes An Intronic Enhancer That Is Attenuated By JIA-Associated Genetic Variants
2019-02-18
Abstract excerpt
Like most rheumatic diseases, genetic risk loci for juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) are highly enriched for H3K4me1/H3K27ac histone marks, epigenetic signatures often associated with enhancer function. We sought to determine whether an H3K4me1/H3K27ac region of the JIA risk locus, IL2RA exhibits enhancer function and whether enhancer function is altered by JIA-associated genetic variants. We used a conventiona...
