Genetic variation of FUT3 in Ghanaians, Caucasians, and Mongolians.

Transfusion - 1 May 2009

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The FUT3 gene regulates the expression of Lewis blood group antigens. Several lines of evidence suggest association between expression of these antigens and Helicobacter pylori infection or susceptibility to cardiovascular diseases. Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) responsible for the Lewis-negative phenotype have been reported, but systematic sequence analyses have not yet been performed. STUDY...
