Abstract excerpt
To investigate the association between SNPs located in 5'UTR and intron of prolyl hydroxylase 2 (EGLN1 or PHD2) and adaptation to high-altitude hypoxia, the SNPs (rs2066140, rs2808584, rs2491405, rs2486741, rs2486734 and rs21533646) of EGLN1 gene were genotyped using Sequenom MassArray genotyping system in 152 unrelated healthy Tibetan individuals (3 650 m altitude) and 192 Han (5 00 m altitude), and the...
