Chromosome contacts in activated T cells identify autoimmune disease candidate genes
Autoimmune disease-associated variants are preferentially found in regulatory regions in immune cells, particularly CD4+ T cells. Linking such regulatory regions to gene promoters in disease-relevant cell contexts facilitates identification of candidate disease genes.Within 4 h, activation of CD4+ T...
