REGULATOR: a database of metazoan transcription factors and maternal factors for developmental studies.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Identification of causal SNPs in most genome wide association studies relies on approaches that consider each SNP individually. However, there is a strong correlation structure among SNPs that needs to be taken into account. Hence, increasingly modern computationally expensive regression methods are employed...
