Journal ArticleDOI

HaploReg v4: systematic mining of putative causal variants, cell types, regulators and target genes for human complex traits and disease.

TL;DR: A use case of HaploReg is illustrated for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)-associated SNPs with putative brain regulatory mechanisms, and the number of chromatin state maps to 127 reference epigenomes is greatly expanded.
Journal ArticleDOI

An endogenous small interfering RNA pathway in Drosophila

TL;DR: It is shown that Drosophila generates a third small RNA class, endogenous small interfering RNAs, in both gonadal and somatic tissues, adding a class that blurs distinctions based on known biogenesis mechanisms and functional roles.
Journal ArticleDOI

Exploring the phenotypic consequences of tissue specific gene expression variation inferred from GWAS summary statistics.

Alvaro N. Barbeira, +263 more
TL;DR: A mathematical expression is derived to compute PrediXcan results using summary data, and the effects of gene expression variation on human phenotypes in 44 GTEx tissues and >100 phenotypes are investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome analysis of the platypus reveals unique signatures of evolution

Wesley C. Warren, +104 more
- 08 May 2008 - 
TL;DR: It is found that reptile and platypus venom proteins have been co-opted independently from the same gene families; milk protein genes are conserved despite platypuses laying eggs; and immune gene family expansions are directly related to platypUS biology.
