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 the disease. Genome-wide linkage studies have led to localization of more than 10 susceptibility loci for...
