Characterising the loss-of-function impact of 5’ untranslated region variants in whole genome sequence data from 15,708 individuals
Abstract
Upstream open reading frames (uORFs) are important tissue-specific cis -regulators of protein translation. Although isolated case reports have shown that variants that create or disrupt uORFs can cause disease, genetic sequencing approaches typically focus on protein-coding regions and ignore these variants. Here, we describe a systematic genome-wide study of variants that create and disrupt human uORFs, and explore their role in human disease...
