Functional annotation of genetic associations by transcriptome-wide association analysis provides insights into neutrophil development regulation

Yao Yao et al. perform transcriptome-wide association analysis through integration of gene expression data and results of a previously-published genome-wide association study for neutrophil count. They find 34 independent genomic regions associated with expression changes and show that knockout of o...

Sumario:Yao Yao et al. perform transcriptome-wide association analysis through integration of gene expression data and results of a previously-published genome-wide association study for neutrophil count. They find 34 independent genomic regions associated with expression changes and show that knockout of one candidate gene, TAF9, in CD34+ progenitor cells increases neutrophil maturation in vitro.
