Where this comes from

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.
