HMOX1 STR polymorphism and malaria: an analysis of a large clinical dataset
Abstract Background Inducible expression of heme oxygenase-1 (encoded by the gene HMOX1) may determine protection from heme released during malaria infections. A variable length, short tandem GT(n) repeat (STR) in HMOX1 that may influence gene expression has been associated with outcomes of human ma...
