Putative enhancer sites in the bovine genome are enriched with variants affecting complex traits
Abstract Background Enhancers are non-coding DNA sequences, which when they are bound by specific proteins increase the level of gene transcription. Enhancers activate unique gene expression patterns within cells of different types or under different conditions. Enhancers are key contributors to gen...
