Structural variation of the malaria-associated human glycophorin A-B-E region

2019-08-01

Abstract excerpt

Approximately 5% of the human genome consists of structural variants, which are enriched for genes involved in the immune response and cell-cell interactions. A well-established region of extensive structural variation is the glycophorin gene cluster, comprising three tandemly-repeated regions about 120kb in length, carrying the highly homologous genes GYPA , GYPB and GYPE . Glycophorin A and glycophorin B are...
