Anthrax Susceptibility: Human Genetic Polymorphisms Modulating ANTXR2 Expression

Anthrax Susceptibility: Human Genetic Polymorphisms Modulating ANTXR2 Expression

Anthrax toxin causes anthrax pathogenesis and expression levels of ANTXR2 (anthrax toxin receptor 2) are strongly correlated with anthrax toxin susceptibility. Previous studies found that ANTXR2 transcript abundance varies considerably in individuals of different ethnic/geographical groups, but no e...
