Variation at the IRF2 gene and susceptibility to psoriasis in chromosome 4q-linked families.
- Abstract:
-
Evidence, largely from Irish pedigrees, indicates that a susceptibility locus for psoriasis maps to chromosome 4q. The gene encoding interferon regulatory factor-2 (IRF-2) maps to this region, and, as mice lacking IRF-2 exhibit a dermatologic phenotype resembling many aspects of human psoriasis, IRF-2 represents an attractive positional candidate. We set out to establish whether variation in IRF-2 sequence or expression was related to the development of psoriasis. First, the promoter, coding,...
