Allele-specific binding (ASB) events inform functional interpretation of disease-associated variants. a Numbers of ASB single-nucleotide variants (SNVs) that are also disease-related SNVs annotated by different databases. b Genomic context of genome-wide association study (GWAS) single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) (stacked bars) located in the same or different genes as ASB SNVs. Most GWAS SNPs are located in introns, whose function was elusive. NC exon: exons in non-coding transcripts. Splicing-related: those located in splice site signals. c Splicing reporter validation of two ASB SNVs, similar as Fig. 4e. (Images are cropped, with uncropped images in Supplementary Figure 16.) d Minigene reporter validation of one SNP for its function in modulating messenger RNA (mRNA) abundance, similar as Fig. 5e. Boxplot center lines indicate the median and the boxes extend to lower and upper quartiles with whiskers depicting 1.5 inter-quartile range (IQR). (Source data are provided as a Source Data file)
