Cis eQTL

Heterogeneity of expression quantitative trait locus (eQTL) effects have been shown across gene expression processes. Knowledge on how to produce the heterogeneity is quite limited. This study aims to examine fluctuations in differential gene expression by alleles of sequence variants across expression processes.

The observation that disease-associated genetic variants typically reside outside of exons has inspired widespread investigation into the genetic basis of transcriptional regulation. While associations between the mRNA abundance of a gene and its proximal SNPs (cis-eQTLs) are now readily identified, identification of high-quality distal associations (trans-eQTLs) has been limited by a heavy multiple testing burden and the proneness to false-positive signals.

Regions of the genome containing variants that influence the number of expressed RNA molecules are expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs). Variation associated with RAO that also regulates a gene’s expression in a disease relevant tissue could help identify candidate genes that influence RAO if that gene’s expression is also associated with RAO disease status.

The objectives of the present research were: 1) to perform eQTL and sQTL mapping analyses for meat quality traits in longissimus dorsi muscle; 2) to uncover genes whose expression is influenced by local or distant genetic variation; 3) to identify expression and splicing hot spots; and 4) to uncover genomic regions affecting the expression of multiple genes.
