Localization of a Type 1 Diabetes Locus in the IL2RA/CD25 Region by Use of Tag Single-Nucleotide Polymorphisms

Vella, Adrian, Cooper, Jason D., Lowe, Christopher E., Walker, Neil, Nutland, Sarah, Widmer, Barry, ...

As part of an ongoing search for genes associated with type 1 diabetes (T1D), a common autoimmune disease, we tested the biological candidate gene IL2RA (CD25), which encodes a subunit (IL-2Rα) of...
