Abstract excerpt
The TNFAIP3 locus at 6q23, encoding A20, has been associated with multiple autoimmune diseases (AIDs). In this study, we sequence the coding portions of the gene to identify contributing causal polymorphisms that may explain some of the observed associations. A collection of 123 individuals from the Multiple Autoimmune Disease Genetics Consortium (MADGC) collection, each with multiple AIDs (mean=2.2 confirmed...
