Absence of the deltaccr5 mutation in indigenous populations of the Brazilian Amazon.

Human genetics - 1 Nov 1999

Leboute A P, de Carvalho M W, Simões A L

Abstract excerpt

Carriers of the deltaccr5 allele, which contains a deletion of 32 bases in relation to the normal allele of the beta-chemokine receptor gene (CCR5), have increased resistance to HIV-1 infection. The higher frequency of this mutation in Europeans than in Blacks and Asians, has generated interest in determining its distribution in other populations. The population of this study involved 300 Amerindians from four...
