Deplancke Referred to recent pub (Science Nov 2013: http://t.co/1V91O7zcMH ) Classify heterozygote SNPs with PU.1 motifs #ESHG14
2:46am June 1st 2014 via Hootsuite
Deplancke: 50% of QTLs are >10kb from mark; 33% of PU.1 QTLs are local; QTLs w/in the mark, the greater the effect #ESHG14
2:44am June 1st 2014 via Hootsuite
Deplancke: Observed remarkable variation of VMMs - looked at QTL's within 250kb of the variable peak; relatively low 2% QTLs #ESHG14
2:43am June 1st 2014 via Hootsuite
Deplancke: Related to gene exp variation: RNApol II correlates with the gene; but majority of VMMs not ass'd with gene exp. #ESHG14
2:41am June 1st 2014 via Hootsuite
Deplancke: Chr21 APP genes - 275kb, 23 peaks, 5 molecular phenotypes; individual cell lines observe coord. global chromatin activity #ESHG14
2:39am June 1st 2014 via Hootsuite
Deplancke: Strong enrichment of var enhancers; >90% VMMs have at least 1 H3K27Ac peak - importance of that mark #ESHG14
2:38am June 1st 2014 via Hootsuite
Deplancke: 5 sites (RBP2, H3K4me3 etc) across Chr21 example - from 78k phen-phen ass'ns, 14.5K VMMs #ESHG14
2:37am June 1st 2014 via Hootsuite
Deplancke: This graph is binary relationships - but what about higher-order complexity? Variable Molecular Models (VMMs) #ESHG14
2:36am June 1st 2014 via Hootsuite
Deplancke: Distances up to 1MB apart - H3K4me3-RPB2 100bp away - but many over 'long distances' 100kb-500kb. #ESHG14
2:35am June 1st 2014 via Hootsuite
Deplancke: Across 47 lymphoblastoid lines: looking at H3K27ac marks against H3K4m1, PU.1 etc. 2.7M pairwise comparisons #ESHG14

Wijmenga: eQTLs can help prioritize risk genes in autoimmune disorders #ESHG14
Wijmenga: Looking at trans-eQTLs: SNP is on chr4, but in trans affects a gene on Chr1 and Chr6. Both B-cell reg genes #ESHG14
12:57pm May 31st 2014 via Hootsuite
Wijmenga: lncRNAs: >200nt, no ORF, intronic, can be antisense, overlap ORF, can modify chromatin. 'Fn of most lncRNAs are unknown' #ESHG1
12:56pm May 31st 2014 via Hootsuite
Wijmenga: Illust. one risk SNP up-regulates one downstream gene but down-regulates three other upstream genes #ESHG14
12:55pm May 31st 2014 via Hootsuite
Wijmenga: 50% of the cis-eQTL effect is to a single gene. As many as 6 other genes for other cis-eQTLs. #ESHG14
Wijmenga: Found cis-eQTLs vary from 14% - 60%. 1/4 are on n.c. genes. Likely underestimated: these ncRNA are lower exp, tissue-spec #ESHG14
