Decoding Non-coding Variants: Recent Approaches to Studying Their Role in Gene Regulation and Human Diseases

Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have mapped over 90% of disease- and quantitative-trait-associated variants within the non-coding genome. Non-coding regulatory DNA (e.g., promoters and enhancers) and RNA (e.g., 5′ and 3′ UTRs and splice sites) are essential in regulating temporal and tissue-s...
