🔢 We overlapped 4,724 genetic variants across 14 immune diseases with cis-regulatory elements that were accessible in CD4+ T cells

⚡️ Perturbing these elements with TAP-seq (tinyurl.com/TAPseq) revealed the genes they regulate. Best computational predictors? ENCODE-rE2G and eQTLs

2/TAP-seq focuses scRNA-seq on a gene panel you define upfront instead of sequencing everything.

Up to 50x reduction in sequencing costs. Better sensitivity for the genes that actually matter.
