APOL1 variants and kidney disease in people of recent African ancestry.

Nature reviews. Nephrology - 1 Apr 2013

Genovese Giulio, Friedman David J, Pollak Martin R

Abstract excerpt

Coding variants within the APOL1 gene have been associated with kidney disease, explaining an association that was previously attributed to variants within the neighbouring MYH9 gene. To better define the role of APOL1 in causing kidney disease in individuals of African ancestry, we performed an extensive survey of the common variation in the region surrounding the APOL1 gene, as seen through the lens of the 1000...
