OBJECTIVES: To assess whether there is excess transmission of alleles from the ERAP1 ERAP2 locus in families with ankylosing spondylitis (AS). METHODS: 199 multiplex families with AS with four non-synonymous single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), three in the endoplasmic reticulum aminopeptidase 1 (ERAP1) gene (rs27044, rs10050860 and rs30187) and one in the endoplasmic reticulum aminopeptidase 2 (ERAP2) gene...
