ACTN3 R577X polymorphism and performance phenotypes in young Chinese male soldiers.

Journal of sports sciences - 1 Jan 2012

Shang Xuya, Zhang Fu, Zhang Li, Huang Changlin

Abstract excerpt

Alpha-actinin-3 (ACTN3) is absent in 18% of healthy Caucasian individuals owing to homozygosity for a premature stop codon (X) at amino acid 577 (rs1815739). Previous studies have shown a strong association between ACTN3 genotype and human athletic performance. In a study of 452 young Chinese male soldiers, we examined the distribution of ACTN3 genotypes and alleles and analysed the association between ACTN3...
