Abstract excerpt
It has been postulated that gene function may influence the degree to which allele frequencies differ among populations. In order to evaluate this effect, genotypic data from resequencing studies of genes classified as cytokines, cytokine receptors, cell adhesion molecules, Toll-like receptors and coagulation proteins were analysed for genetic differentiation (FST) between population samples of European and...
