Pinpointing the exact noncoding variants driving locus-disease associations is an enduring challenge. Using MPRA, a @jacksonlab.bsky.social, Broad & @yaleschoolofmed.bsky.social team tested >220,000 variants in 5 cell types, resolving >13,000 and revealing mechanisms behind several disease traits.

A new @natgenet.nature.com study by Broad, @mgbresearch.bsky.social, and VA Boston collaborators reveals a genetic variant that helps explain the high dilated cardiomyopathy risk in people of African ancestry.

Genetic variant increases risk of heart muscle disease common in individuals of African ancestry
A single mutation in the CD36 gene, present in 17 percent of people with African ancestry, increases a person's dilated cardiomyopathy risk by 33 percent.
