Transcriptome and genome sequencing uncovers functional variation in humans
Open accessAbstract
Genome sequencing projects are discovering millions of genetic variants in humans, and interpretation of their functional effects is essential for understanding the genetic basis of variation in human traits. Here we report sequencing and deep analysis of messenger RNA and microRNA from lymphoblastoid cell lines of 462 individuals from the 1000 Genomes Project--the first uniformly processed high-throughput RNA-sequencing data from multiple human populations with high-quality genome sequences. We discover extremely widespread genetic variation affecting the regulation of most genes, with transcript structure and expression level variation being equally common but genetically largely independent. Our characterization of causal regulatory variation sheds light on the cellular mechanisms of regulatory and loss-of-function variation, and allows us to infer putative causal variants for dozens of disease-associated loci. Altogether, this study provides a deep understanding of the cellular mechanisms of transcriptome variation and of the landscape of functional variants in the human genome.

“it is probable that the models, without any supervision, have learned to distinguish relevant regulatory genomic features associated with gene expression and methylation variation.”
From Nucleotide Transformer: building and evaluating robust foundation models for human genomics (2025) · cites this paper as [41]
The Properties of regulatory variants section reports that expression QTLs are enriched in regulatory genomic features, including transcription-factor peaks, promoters, and enhancers. It does not show that unsupervised models learned to distinguish those features or connect them to methylation variation; the Methods instead describe QTL mapping by linear regression. No page numbers are available in our copy. (LLM, conf=0.82)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredMany studies attempt to bypass the requirement for individualized alignment by aligning reads to a common reference and discarding reads that do not align to a unique location.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
