Direct Identification of Hundreds of Expression-Modulating Variants using a Multiplexed Reporter Assay

Although studies have identified hundreds of loci associated with human traits and diseases, pinpointing causal alleles remains difficult, particularly for non-coding variants. To address this challenge, we adapted the massively parallel reporter assay (MPRA) to identify variants that directly modul...
