    • Genome-wide association studies have identified 46 replicated genetic loci for coronary heart disease (CHD), and 104 loci associated at a 5% false discovery rate. However, the regulatory mechanisms of these associations largely remain elusive. Given that the majority of these CHD-associated loci reside in non-coding regions, they are predicted to function via context-specific gene regulation. Recent high-throughput assays of regulatory function include the assay for transposase-accessible… CONTINUE READING
