Countries of ancestry reported by hemochromatosis probands and control subjects in central Alabama.

Ethnicity & disease - 1 Jan 2004

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: We sought to evaluate the hypothesis that the relatively high HFE C282Y allele frequency in White persons in central Alabama (0.0896) is due to a predominance of persons of Irish and Scots descent, and is not attributable to Native American ancestry common in this geographic area. DESIGN: Eighty evaluable hemochromatosis probands with C282Y homozygosity and 319 White controls reported countries of...
