Tissue-based functional genomics resources including molecular quantitative trait loci datasets lack diversity in ancestry and tissue types and thus are inadequate for comprehensively investigating gene regulation. Global efforts to increase the tissue diversity will help achieve more equitable medical care.
基于组织的功能基因组学资源,包括分子数量性状位点数据集,在祖先和组织类型方面缺乏多样性,因此不足以全面研究基因调控。全球增加组织多样性的努力将有助于实现更公平的医疗保健。
