Regulation of insulin gene expression by the IDDM associated, insulin locus haplotype
1 Jan 1995
Abstract excerpt
A 4.1 kb genomic region, spanning the insulin (INS) gene, confers genetic susceptibility to Type 1 or insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM). Ten polymorphisms within this region form two predominant, complementary haplotypes. We have been studying the effects of these polymorphisms on the levels of insulin mRNA. Cloned genomic DNA fragments representing these two separate haplotypes were transiently...
