Systematic identification of genomic elements that regulate FCGR2A expression and harbor variants linked with autoimmune...
...Published in Human Molecular Genetics
FCGR2A binds antibody-antigen complexes to regulate the abundance of circulating and deposited complexes along with downstream immune and autoimmune responses. Although the abundance of FCRG2A may be critical in immune-mediated diseases, little is known about whether its surface expression is regulated through cis genomic elements and non-coding va...
Genome-wide enhancer maps link risk variants to disease genes.
...Published in Nature
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified thousands of noncoding loci that are associated with human diseases and complex traits, each of which could reveal insights into the mechanisms of disease1. Many of the underlying causal variants may affect enhancers2,3, but we lack accurate maps of enhancers and their target genes to interpret...
