Extensive gene mapping reveals 20 variants linked to atherosclerosis risk, paving way for early detection by University of Gothenburg Editors' notes The GIST Add as preferred source ...

Translating genome-wide association study (GWAS) loci into causal variants and genes requires accurate cell-type-specific enhancer–gene maps from disease-relevant tissues. Building enhancer–gene maps ...

Meiotic recombination reshuffles parental genetic material at each generation, resulting in genetic variability in the offspring. It is exploited both to localize loci with respect to each other in ...

For decades, geneticists have known that most common illnesses are not caused by a single rogue gene but by intricate constellations of DNA variants acting together in specific cells. Now a new ...
