Abstract excerpt
Oligoadenylate synthetases (OAS) play an important role in the immune response against dengue virus. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the OAS genes are known to affect OAS activity and are associated with outcome of viral infections. Polymorphisms in the OAS1 (rs1131454 and rs10774671), OAS3 (rs2285932 and rs2072136) and OAS2 (rs15895 and ) genes were studied using PCR followed by restriction...
