Abstract excerpt

The genomic region encompassing complement factor H (CFH) is thought to be important in determining susceptibility to inflammatory diseases such as age-related macular degeneration, but only limited polymorphism has been described. After applying the genomic matching technique to three-generation families and an ethnically diverse reference panel we have demonstrated that the polymorphism resembles that found in...
