Abstract excerpt
Cytoplasmic T Lymphocyte Antigen-4 (CTLA-4) gene encodes for a glycoprotein, expressed on activated T-cells to transfer an inhibitory signal to control T-cell activation and proliferation. Techniques coupled with Real-time Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) and High-Resolution Melting Analysis (HRMA) were used to screen a missense signal peptide polymorphism (CTLA-4 + 49 A/G rs231775) in the Indian population to...
