Allele-specific binding of RNA-binding proteins reveals functional genetic variants in the RNA

Differential binding of RNA-binding proteins mediated by genetic variants (GVs) can influence posttranscriptional regulation. Here, the authors develop BEAPR, a computational approach to identify allele-specific binding events in eCLIP-Seq data.
