Tau (MAPT) haplotypes in Jordan: new evidence on the Middle East as a melting-pot predating Neolithic migration

Frequencies of H1 and H2 haplotypes of the microtubule-associated protein tau (MAPT) gene were examined in two Jordanian samples. The criterion for haplotype assignment was the presence/absence of the intronic 238-bp deletion, located between exons 9 and 10 of the MAPT genomic region. We further com...
