In addition, the association of rs2960785 with gene expression is highly blood-enriched (Additional file 1: Fig. S4.3c); it creates a putative GABPA binding site (CGGAAG) [63] (which is a direct interactor of the myeloid TF CEBPA [64]) and is associated with ASB of CEBPA in AML [45]. This evidence concerns the gene CEBPA and acute myeloid leukemia.
