A European allele map of the C282Y mutation of hemochromatosis: Celtic versus Viking origin of the mutation?

Blood cells, molecules & diseases - 1 Jan 2000

Lucotte Gérard, Dieterlen Florent

Abstract excerpt

The aim of this new meta-analysis (to the end of 2002) is to compile the Y allele frequencies of the C282Y mutation of hereditary hemochromatosis (HFE gene) for 63 European populations, representing a total of 10,708 unrelated people concerning control samples. A new allele map of C282Y frequencies in Europe was constructed. The highest European frequencies are observed in the Celtic populations in Ireland, in...
