A functional genomics pipeline identifies pleiotropy and cross-tissue effects within obesity-associated GWAS loci

Many genetic loci have been linked to obesity, but knowledge of their functional mechanisms is limited. Here, the authors perform reporter assays and temporal functional genomics data generation to characterize obesity genetic loci and find that loci often harbor multiple functional variants.
