UBE2L3 and systemic lupus erythematosus: We replicated the known SLE associated eQTLs and eGenes discovered using microarrays, including rs564799 for IL12A, rs2736340 for BLK, rs9311676 ABHD6, and rs2289583 for ULK, CSK, and MPI. Several of these associations have been extensively studied in terms of their role in SLE pathogenesis, for example, rs10028805 for BANK1 (65) and rs7444 for UBE2L3 (68).
