Abstract excerpt
Variation within the non-coding genome may influence the regulation and expression of important genes involved in immune control such as the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) system. Class I and Class II HLA molecules are essential for peptide presentation which is required for T lymphocyte activation. Single nucleotide polymorphisms within non-coding regions of HLA Class I and Class II genes may influence the...
