Genome-wide association scan was performed in 1,840 cases of primary biliary cirrhosis and 5,163 controls. Replication of new associations was tested in an independent set of 620 cases and 2,514 controls.
A defining characteristic of quiescent cells is their low level of gene activity compared to growing cells. Using a yeast model for cellular quiescence, we compared the genome-wide profiles of multiple histone modifications between growing and quiescent cells, and correlated these profiles with the...
