Interethnic diversity of the CD209 (rs4804803) gene promoter polymorphisms in African but not American sickle cell disease

2014-11-08

Abstract excerpt

Elucidating the genomic diversity of CD209 gene promoter polymorphisms could assist in clarifying disease pathophysiology as well as contribution to co-morbidities. CD209 gene promoter polymorphisms have been shown to be associated with susceptibility to infection. We hypothesize that CD209 mutant variants occur at a higher frequency among Africans and in sickle cell disease. We analyzed the frequency of the CD209...
