A study of CNVs as trait-associated polymorphisms and as expression quantitative trait loci.
We conducted a comprehensive study of copy number variants (CNVs) well-tagged by SNPs (r(2)≥ 0.8) by analyzing their effect on gene expression and their association with disease susceptibility and other complex human traits. We tested whether these CNVs were more likely to be functional than frequen...
