Disscussion extensive sharing of eQTLs across human populations effect size and the direction of effect for eQTLs: highly conserved symmetric distribution of eQTLs around the TSS additional cell types under a variety different cellular and developmental conditions how the frequency spectrum of regulatory variants has been shaped by selective and demographic processes how these functional variants contribute to higher order phenotypes methods to preprocess microarray data and detect eQTLs comprehensive analysis of eQTLs and functional association
