Integrating Long-Read Structural Variant Analysis with single-nucleus RNA-seq to Elucidate Gene Expression Effects in Disease
Structural variants (SVs) are a major source of genetic diversity, yet how they impact cell types in complex brain diseases remains largely unexplored, partially due to limitations of short-read sequencing. Here, we addressed this fundamental question in Parkinson's disease (PD). generating long-read whole-genome sequencing (WGS) data for 100 post-mortem brain…
Modeling cis-regulatory variation in human brain enhancers across a large Parkinson's Disease cohort
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have linked more than hundred non-coding genomic loci to Parkinson’s disease (PD) risk. Deciphering their functional impact on gene regulation requires cell type-aware modeling approaches to assess the effects of sequence variation on enhancer function and target gene expression. To address this challenge, we generated a…
