Interactome Analysis Uncovers Tissue-specific Roles of Disease-causing Genes

Jun 13, 2014

|

NEW YORK (GenomeWeb) — Though most disease-causing genes are expressed throughout the body, they typically have an effect in one tissue, and unraveling that effect can reveal the molecular basis of the disease, researchers from Ben-Gurion University of the Negev in Israel reported in PLOS Computational Biology yesterday.
