Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Polymorphisms of the mannose-binding lectin gene (MBL2) affect the concentration and functional efficiency of the protein. We recently used haplotype-specific sequencing to identify 23 MBL2 haplotypes, associated with enhanced susceptibility to several diseases. RESULTS: In this work, we applied the same method in 288 and 470 chromosomes from Gabonese and European adults, respectively, and found three...
