Cellular deconvolution of GTEx tissues powers discovery of disease and cell-type associated regulatory variants
Cellular heterogeneity can confound functional genomics analyses of bulk tissues. Here, Donovan et al. deconvolute bulk GTEx RNA-seq data utilizing scRNA-seq data from the Tabula Muris project and show the power of using cell populations in eQTL analyses to identify disease and cell-type-associated...

| Summary: | Cellular heterogeneity can confound functional genomics analyses of bulk tissues. Here, Donovan et al. deconvolute bulk GTEx RNA-seq data utilizing scRNA-seq data from the Tabula Muris project and show the power of using cell populations in eQTL analyses to identify disease and cell-type-associated regulatory variants. |
