Abstract excerpt
Loci in the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) on chromosome 6 and the insulin (INS) region on chromosome 11 have been implicated in susceptibility to insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) through candidate gene investigations, but they may account for less than 50% of genetic risk for t...
