The impact of natural selection on an ABCC11 SNP determining earwax type.

Molecular biology and evolution - 1 Jan 2011

Ohashi Jun, Naka Izumi, Tsuchiya Naoyuki

Abstract excerpt

A nonsynonymous single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), rs17822931-G/A (538G>A; Gly180Arg), in the ABCC11 gene determines human earwax type (i.e., wet or dry) and is one of most differentiated nonsynonymous SNPs between East Asian and African populations. A recent genome-wide scan for positive sele...
