Exonic sequencing identifies TLR1 genetic variation associated with mortality in Thais with melioidosis

ABSTRACTMelioidosis, an infectious disease caused by the bacterium Burkholderia pseudomallei, is a common cause of sepsis in Southeast Asia. We investigated whether novel TLR1 coding variants are associated with outcome in Thai patients with melioidosis. We performed exonic sequencing on a discovery...
