Next at #BoG19: My brilliant student Elise Flynn (@EliseScience) talks about mechanisms of tissue-specificity of cis-eQTLs. Using #GTEx data, focusing on transcription factors.
@EliseScience analyzes tissue variability in eQTL effect size - measured by allelic fold change (developed by @Pejminister) that can be calculated from GTEx eQTLs from 49 tissues, also from ASE data. #bog19
It's common (10%) that eQTL effect size is correlated (pos or neg) with target gene expression across tissues.
Great opportunity to ketchup on the exciting field of tomato genomics #BoG19
Shouldn't have tweeted this bad pun, but heinzsight is 20/20
