Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: To determine if the polymorphism encoding the Arg206Cys substitution in DNASE1L3 explains the association of the DNASE1L3/PXK gene locus with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and to examine the effect of the Arg206Cys sequence change on DNASE1L3 protein function. METHODS: Conditional analysis for rs35677470 was performed on cases and controls with European ancestry from the SLE Immunochip study, and...
