Abstract excerpt
Sequence variants occur every few hundred bases in the human genome. We evaluated the relationship between disease-causing mutations and neutral sequence variants at the 150 Kb ataxia-telangiectasia (A-T) locus. Mutations at this locus cause a distinct autosomal recessive syndrome in homozygotes and predispose heterozygotes to cancer and coronary heart disease. Nine common neutral sequence variants were observed...
