Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: FUT2 determines the secretor status of ABH antigens. Many lines of evidence suggest an association between secretor status and susceptibility to various clinical conditions. For this kind of study, large-scale genotyping of FUT2 is necessary. Because FUT2 has a pseudogene (SEC1) with high DNA sequence similarity and is rich in population-specific SNPs, we need to pay attention in designing the primers...
