Extent of linkage disequilibrium between the androgen receptor gene CAG and GGC repeats in human populations: implications for prostate cancer risk.

Human genetics - 1 Sept 2001

Abstract excerpt

While studies have implicated alleles at the CAG and GGC trinucleotide repeats of the androgen receptor gene with high-grade, aggressive prostate cancer disease, little is known about the normal range of variation for these two loci, which are separated by about 1.1 kb. More importantly, few data exist on the extent of linkage disequilibrium (LD) between the two loci in different human populations. Here we...
