Abstract excerpt
The transporter associated with antigen processing 2 (TAP2) is involved in the development of multidrug resistance and the etiology of immunological diseases. In this study, we investigated whether the expression of TAP2 can be perturbed by single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) located in 3'-untranslated region (3'-UTR) of the gene via interactions with microRNAs. Using a series of in silico assays, we selected...
