Abstract:Gene expression variation is a quantitative trait that drives phenotypic diversity across populations.On a cellular level, gene expression is an intermediate phenotype between stored genetic information and the functional utilization of this information within the cell. Through Genome Wide Association Studies (GWAS), thousands of genetic polymorphisms associated with numerous diseases have been identified. These have provided many novel insights into the disrupted biological processes that drive the etiology o… Show more
