Genome search for additional human loci controlling infection levels by Schistosoma mansoni.

The American journal of tropical medicine and hygiene - 1 Dec 2001

Abstract excerpt

Schistosomiasis is a major public health problem in many developing countries. Previous studies have shown that infection levels by Schistosoma mansoni in a Brazilian population is controlled by a major gene, denoted as SM1, which was mapped to chromosome 5q31-q33 by use of a model-based (logarithm of the odds [lod] score) analysis method. The present study is an autosome-wide scan searching for additional human...
