Solving Mendelian Mysteries: The Non-coding Genome May Hold the Key

Abstract

Despite revolutionary advances in sequencing approaches, many mendelian disorders have remained unexplained. In this issue of Cell, Aneichyk et al. combine genomic and cell-type-specific transcriptomic data to causally link a non-coding mutation in the ubiquitous TAF1 gene to X-linked dystonia-parkinsonism.
