CRISPRi perturbation screens and eQTLs provide complementary and distinct insights into GWAS target genes
2025-05-06
Abstract excerpt
Most genetic variants associated with human traits and diseases lie in noncoding regions of the genome 1 , and a key challenge is determining which genes they affect 2,3 . A common approach has been to leverage associations between natural genetic variation and gene expression to identify expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs) in the population 4,5 . At the same time, a novel approach uses pooled CRISPR int...
