Polymorphic tandem repeats within gene promoters act as modifiers of gene expression and DNA methylation in humans
Despite representing an important source of genetic variation, tandem repeats (TRs) remain poorly studied due to technical difficulties. We hypothesized that TRs can operate as expression (eQTLs) and methylation (mQTLs) quantitative trait loci. To test this we analyzed the effect of variation at 484...
