Abstract excerpt
In this paper, we report for the first time the results of an investigation on the association of signal transducer and activator of transcription 6 (STAT6) with asthma in the Indian population. A novel polymorphic CA-repeat in the proximal promoter region [R1] and a previously identified CA-repeat in the 5'-untranslated region [R3] were genotyped, and haplotypes [R1_R3] were generated using PHASE software.
