  • The MuTHER Consortium reports an analysis of the genetics of gene expression in three tissues from approximately 850 mono- and dizygotic twins. They systematically dissect cis and trans genetic effects and estimate non-genetic effects on gene expression.

  • Here, sequencing has been used to characterize the mRNA fraction of the transcriptome in Caucasian individuals, to provide a fine-scale view of transcriptomes and to identify genetic variants that affect alternative splicing. Measuring allele-specific expression identified rare expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs) and allelic differences in transcript structure, revealing new properties of genetic effects on the transcriptome.
