Journal ArticleDOI

Detecting recent positive selection in the human genome from haplotype structure

TL;DR: A framework for detecting the genetic imprint of recent positive selection by analysing long-range haplotypes in human populations is introduced, and the core haplotypes carrying the proposed protective mutation stand out and show significant evidence of selection.
Journal ArticleDOI

Association of a Polymorphism in the P2X7 Gene with Tuberculosis in a Gambian Population

TL;DR: A significant protective association against tuberculosis was found for 1 promoter SNP, at nucleotide position -762, which supports a role for ATP/P2X(7)-mediated host regulation of Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection.
Journal ArticleDOI

Polymorphism within the interferon-gamma/receptor complex is associated with pulmonary tuberculosis.

TL;DR: Evidence of a significant role for genetic variation at the IFNG locus is provided and the hypothesis that genetically determined variation in both IFN-gamma production and responsiveness influences the risk of developing tuberculosis is supported.
