A population genetics study of single nucleotide polymorphisms in the interleukin 4 receptor alpha (IL4RA) gene.

Genes and immunity - 1 May 2001

Wu X, Di Rienzo A, Ober C

Abstract excerpt

Interleukin 4 (IL4) plays a critical role in T helper 2 (Th2) immune responses. Here we report a population genetics study of variation in the gene encoding the alpha-chain of the IL4 receptor (IL4RA) in three ethnic groups: African Americans, European Americans and East Asians. A 2941-bp region spanning exon 12 of IL4RA gene was sequenced in 12 individuals from each group. A total of 24 single nucleotide...
