Whole-organism eQTL mapping at cellular resolution with single-cell sequencing
Genetic regulation of gene expression underlies variation in disease risk and other complex traits. The effect of expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs) varies across cell types; however, the complexity of mammalian tissues makes studying cell-type ...

eQTL regulates OsHAK5 in enhancing potassium content under salt stress in rice
To alleviate salt stress in rice, the role of potassium in countering the ill effects of sodium is gaining importance. Towards this, OsHAK5 a member of the high-affinity potassium transporter family was known for enhancing the intracellular potassium ...

Development of a tissue augmented Bayesian model for expression quantitative trait loci analysis
Expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) analyses detect genetic variants (SNPs) associated with RNA expression levels of genes. The conventional eQTL analysis is to perform individual tests for each gene-SNP pair using simple linear regression and to ...

Impact of natural genetic variation on gene expression dynamics. [PDF]
DNA sequence variation causes changes in gene expression, which in turn has profound effects on cellular states. These variations affect tissue development and may ultimately lead to pathological phenotypes.

Identification of asthma-related genes using asthmatic blood eQTLs of Korean patients
Background More than 200 asthma-associated genetic variants have been identified in genome-wide association studies (GWASs). Expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) data resources can help identify causal genes of the GWAS signals, but it can be ...
