<td align=left colspan=1><font face=Helvetica size=3>1. cis QTLs are defined
as QTLs that are closely linked to the gene whose transcript is the measured
trait. For example, a polymorphism in the promoter that affects the binding
of a transcription factor. However, cis QTLs can be far upstream or downstream
polymorphisms in enhancers. They may also be polymorphisms in neigghboring
genes.</font><br>

<td align=left colspan=1><font face=Helvetica size=3>2. trans QTLs map far
enough away from the location of the gene that gives rise to the transcript
that is being measured so that we can be quite certain that the QTL is not IN
the gene itself. The most blatant type of trans-QTL would be a polymorphism
in a transcription factor. BUT in the majority of cases, the trans QTLs can
be far removed in a mechanistic sense from the actual events modulating
transcript abundance. That is why there are three overlappoing arrows above.<span
