Heritability enrichment of specifically expressed genes identifies disease-relevant tissues and cell types.

abstract：:How the human brain rapidly builds up its lipid content during brain growth and maintains its lipids in adulthood has remained elusive. Two new studies show that inactivating mutations in MFSD2A, known to be expressed specifically at the blood-brain barrier, lead to microcephaly, thereby offering a simple and surprisi...
