Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: Transferability of significantly associated loci or GWAS "hits" adds credibility to genotype-disease associations and provides evidence for generalizability across different ancestral populations. We sought evidence of association of known asthma-associated single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in an African American population. METHODS: Subjects comprised 661 participants (261 asthma cases and 400...
