Pleiotropic effects of heterozygosity for the<i>SERPINA1</i>Z allele in the UK Biobank
2020-06-05
Abstract excerpt
Homozygosity for the SERPINA1 Z allele causes alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency, a rare condition that can cause lung and liver disease. However, the effects of Z allele heterozygosity on non-respiratory phenotypes, and on lung function in the general population, remain unclear. We conducted the largest population-based study to date to determine Z allele effects on >2,400 phenotypes using the UK Biobank study (N>303...
