Human variation in population-wide gene expression data predicts gene perturbation phenotype

open access: yesiScience, 2022
Summary: Population-scale datasets of healthy individuals capture genetic and environmental factors influencing gene expression. The expression variance of a gene of interest (GOI) can be exploited to set up a quasi loss- or gain-of-function “in ...

Mosaicism in clinical genetics [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Case Studies, 2021
Genetic mosaicism is the state in which there are two or more different sets of cells in a single individual because of one or more postzygotic mutations, and its importance in clinical genetics has long been recognized (Hall, Am J Hum Genet43: 355 [1988]). In this Perspective, a paper in this special issue on mosaicism from Cook et al.
