The number and location of rare and novel noncoding variants have an impact on gene. a Adjusted proportion of AI transcripts that contain 1 or more noncoding common (red) or rare and novel (blue) variants in transcripts vicinity (+/−20 kb from gene). Adjustment was based on average number of SNPs used to calculate ASE at each ASE levels. b Fold enrichment of common (red) or rare and novel (blue) variants in AI vs all transcripts measuring their distance from transcription start sites (TSS). Transcripts with p < 0.05 were used. Sliding window of 80 kb every 10 kb was used
