Author Contributions

ML, JH, JO, and TM designed the study. ML performed the functional annotations, the eQTL analyses, the enhancer assays, the in situ hybridization and the siRNA assays. HS isolated and cloned the rs4077450_rs4077451 minor and major allele fragments into the plasmid constructs and was supervised by JM. AD carried out the luciferase assay and was supervised by JA. RT carried out the conditional analysis. WS and TF carried out the CoDeS3D analyses. ML, JH, and TM wrote the manuscript with input from JO and WW.
