    • Altered Gene Expression Associated with microRNA Binding Site Polymorphisms 

      Võsa, Urmo; Esko, Tõnu; Kasela, Silva; Annilo, Tarmo (Public Library of Science, 2015)
      Allele-specific gene expression associated with genetic variation in regulatory regions can play an important role in the development of complex traits. We hypothesized that polymorphisms in microRNA (miRNA) response ...
