Heatmap of m values for fetal brain cis-eQTL (FDR < 0.05) for 974 eGenes across 48 adult tissues assayed by the GTEx Consortium [4]. m values are derived from a Meta-Tissue [68] analysis performed by the GTEx consortium (using v7 data), and estimate the posterior probability that an eQTL is shared between each tissue. GTEx m values are available for 974 gene fetal brain cis-eQTL that are predicted to be shared by at least two adult tissues (m values > 0.9); the five fetal brain cis-eQTL that are eQTL in only one adult tissue (FDR < 0.05) are not included. Greatest sharing of fetal brain eQTL is observed for adult brain regions, where, on average, 79% of the tested fetal brain eQTL are predicted to be shared
