Abstract excerpt
This study aimed to test the functional effects of the PD1.3 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) (rs11568821), which were proposed based on its association to systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) susceptibility and in electrophoretic mobility shift assays (EMSA) results. We analysed transcriptional effects of the PD1.3 locus by enhancer reporter assays. Results were against the hypothesis that the PD1.3 locus acts...
