Scope and Contents

Contents

Inherited genetic variation affects local gene expression and DNA methylation in humans. Most expression quantitative trait loci (
cis
-eQTLs) occur at the same genomic location as a methylation QTL (
cis
-meQTL), suggesting a common causal variant and shared mechanism. Using DNA and RNA from peripheral blood of Bangladeshi individuals,...
