We are pleased to announce the recent publication of our newest manuscript in Genes & Immunity. Our manuscript, titled “TALEN-mediated enhancer knockout influences TNFAIP3 gene expression and mimics a phenotype associated with systemic lupus erythematosus,” demonstrates our newest technological advances in precision-based genome editing, and demonstrate that the TT>A variants we previously identified are indeed causal variants that function independent of other LD-associated variants to disrupt TNFAIP3 gene expression in SLE patients.
