Journal Article Cell Genom · February 12, 2025 Single-cell RNA sequencing CRISPR (perturb-seq) screens enable high-throughput investigation of the genome, allowing for characterization of thousands of genomic perturbations on gene expression. Ambient gRNAs, which are contaminating gRNAs, are a major so ... Full text Link to item CiteBayesian Estimation of Allele-Specific Expression in the Presence of Phasing Uncertainty.
Journal Article bioRxiv · August 13, 2024 MOTIVATION: Allele-specific expression (ASE) analyses aim to detect imbalanced expression of maternal versus paternal copies of an autosomal gene. Such allelic imbalance can result from a variety of cis-acting causes, including disruptive mutations within ... Full text Link to item CiteRecent Grants
